20'th Century Proof Type weights

CarlWohlforth

Keith pointed out the new proof type set is up. My first glance (OK, I stared for a while) has me wondering why we have both a DCAM deduction for some coins and a DCAM bonus for others? This is a proof type set after all! Even given that complexity there is one thing that doesn't seem right. The '42 Nickel has a cam deduction! If ever there were a proof coin that should have a bonus rather than a deduction it is the '42 Jeff.

This is my set. But three Buffalos is a little more than basic for me. The T1 matte is on my short list, but the T2 matte is at the end of the long list...

Carl,

Just looked at the weights. Ouch!!

Now here's a question on semantics - if you get a -3 deduction for a BN coin, does that really mean a 3 point bonus? Ya know, the thing about subtracting a negative number is really the same as adding?

Looks like it is going to be a tough set. Will keep an eye out for some of those high weight proofs for you guys next weekend.

Better go after that Lib Nick in CAM. I just checked and someone made a 1901 PR67DCAM in the last 8 days. There is also an additional 1903 in CAM (and the non-cam number went down by one, so it looks like a designation review upgrade). If I keep looking at CAMS, I am never going to get done with my MS set.
