Tell me this has a good shot at DCAM ('66 SMS Jefferson)

Fields are cleaner in hand.. I don't know why they look so... spotted. Steps are frosted as well, that's just a byproduct of crap lighting.

    I think it is just a cam IMHO. The fields need to be perfect and jet black mirrored for DCam. Nice coin though!

    I think you will be disappointed by what the pros say about it.

    Sorry.

    I would say purchase a low grade (61, 62, 63) inexpensive DCAM at your next coin show. That'll make a handy reference you can compare things to.

    What you have is Cameo...Deep Cameo is just that, unmistakeable, it just leaps at you.

    Looks like a normal cam.

    I don't think it has a shot at CAM let alone DCAM.

    The devices aren't frosty, and the fields are dark and reflective enough for either.

    Just an normal 66 Jefferson.

    I think it will likely cam, but the mirrors don't seem to be deep enough to make dcam.

    I give it 99 to 1 odds that it goes Cameo. Looks like a PR-65CAM to me. Could be PR66CAM after a bath if done right.

    It has a shot at DCAM. Might need a quick MS70 to bring out the mirrors.

    For sure a CAM.

    grade wise, looks like a 65 or 66
