Show me High Grade MONSTER TONED PF CAM/DCAM Moderns.

Top Pops are preferred. I imagine it would be really difficult with the CAM/DCAM designation.
I have seen a really nice toned PF68 RD Cent recently...but it certainly isn't 69 or CAM/DCAM.

What's out there and how scarce are these things?

    I don't think I have any that meet your criteria.

    Monster toned and dcam don't seem to mix well at the grading companies.

    I remember Pepperdoodles ranting about this issue years ago. I bought one of his NT (maybe not monster, but colorful) Washingtons - 1954 PF 67 or so, no dcam, but I think it was cam. I felt that if you stripped the toning off, the coin would easily dcam. For those of you that are shuddering - no - I have no plans to strip the toning and will leave the coin as-is.

    I'll have to dig that coin out and try to get some decent photos of it, but I think it is in the bank vault.

    So count me in on monster toned and designated dcams....

    Thanks Cameonut. I would certainly settle to see nicely/colorfully toned. image

    You are not the first person to tell me that CAM/DCAM and FANTASTIC TONING just don't seem to coexist.

    This coin is not a monster BUT is not as bad as the pic suggests.
    It's actually fun to look at in hand.

    Coinsarefun can probably fulfill your request with ease.

    <<< is kinda proud of this modern i made image

    68cam isn't too shabby grade wise and while not a monster...when the right angle is found...an electric blue light...lights these fields...oh so sweet
    a rather unique aqua green laces the reverse fields
    enjoy if ya do
    a lil extra character is found when one looks at the tip of the center ray on the reverse as it got capped off with a die-chip or strike through

    I don't think any of mine are top pops but I do know that in my experience the more super toned a modern
    proof is the lower the grade>




    I sold these a while back and last time I checked they are still together in the registry, they are all DCAM

    I have more that I haven't submitted yet including toned silver eagle proofs but I will get around to it.

    I think the 74-S $1 stands out with 2001 and then 2007 coins 2nd and 3rd from that grouping.
    Of course, eye appeal is subjective. Stef has a passion, that's for sure!
