Post Your Proof 1936-1942 Cameos or Near Cameos

I collect proof cameo coins from this era; however, it is impossible to see examples of everything out there that exists due to how infrequently many of these coins trade. I would like to create a thread for future self study and as an archive of designated examples or examples that are very close but just do miss the designation. I will do the same and post my cameo walkers after I send them off for imaging.

    1940 Jefferson PR67 not enough contrast for cameo.

    I do have some others, but do not have photos of them.

    I suspect this thread to be picture short. These are a buggar.

    Here are the two PCGS certified cams I own. I also have a 1941 (I think) that is close to cameo, but no photos.

    The first is a 1938 in 65 cameo - upgraded from a very old ANACS holder

    The second is a 1942 in 64 cameo - upgraded from a PCGS non-designated OGH

    That 42 looks very close to DCAM. Wonder if it might UCAM if crossed? Definitely star worthy.

    This 1939 Proof dime as a fair amount of cameo contrast when you see it in person.
