cam or dcam killed by toning

lasvegasteddy

i suspect this lincoln fits that title nicely...no way either designation would be assigned
a great red highlight on yellow fields...i still liked him enough to pull that $2 delivered trigger
enjoy if ya do

I've seen them before with this type toning receive a cameo of DC.

This is a PCGS PR67RD Cameo

sweet 1963 there mister robec...
thanks too for your respected input

cool as i'll have hope it may get it's designation when i sub him

I think the plum toning adds to the coin. A couple of top notch Memorials.

oh man, if only they'd toned all the way. yowza.

that shade/hue/tone/pitch/ or whatever of purple is fantastic on bronze/copper imo.

I love the way you shot that 62. Here's my set coin.

The 61,62 and 63 sets produce some of my favorite Jeff toners. Here's one that is sort of like a soap bubble.

this is seller supplied image from "macvanderstein" off of ebay...
he really has sweet images

that 45 degree shadow captures frost contrast and mirror of fields within a straight on image

yup i agree the seller totally rocked this shot...no need for tru-view on this...

lasvegasteddy

oh yeah on note of those early 60's nickel proof toners....
absolutely amazing they can be as your example there "D"

How about this potential DCAM I am selling for a customer "killed by toning"?

your 3 center looks like a sure thing
very sweet example by the way

correct me if i'm wrong as i've lots to learn here

robec's example defined i'm wrong on my lincoln

toning and cameo....i've heard it's a no go on brown copper
i know the sms series they are pretty picky about full mirrored field and full frosted devices

my coin i can't see any contrast on liberty to field...so i thought it's a lock...no go

so muted mirror of field...a greyline on this designation?

DHeath

That's a pretty fish scale. Looks like 68 was a good year for toners as well.

lasvegasteddy

i still tend to believe 1970 was the year for neon toners

some of those 1970-s examples get crazy

@Wondercoin, I think the OP is referring to the fact that PCGS refuses to designate RB and BN copper as CAM or DCAM. Regardless of how good the cameo contrast is, PCGS will only designate CAM and DCAM on coins that they also call RD. Nice trime, but not relevant to the copper RD/CAM discussion.

Brg... What is the relevance of the Jefferson nickel above my posting?

It's toned and comes from the same year -- it was a comment on toning, not on cameo status. I wasn't being confrontational, I was simply stating that with regard to CAM/DCAM status, copper is a world all its own with PCGS grading. Period.

LochNESS

um, wasn't the nickel posted by DHeath? Where is BRG's jefferson posting?
