Haven't posted any new coins in awhile, so thought I'd share my most recent good news delivery from PCGS. I picked up a 1958 Proof set off of Ebay back in June that included this coin. I was amazed when I won the auction for a mere $33.
It should be returned to me from PCGS tomorrow in a sparkly new PR68 DCAM holder.
This coin moved my 1958 proof registry set up to #2 in the current standings. I'm proud to say each coin in that set was purchased raw and graded by me.

Nice. Curious... did you give it a rinse before sending in or just like it came from the packaging?

Wow! A $5k coin picked up for $30. Impressive, and you suck.
Collector, occasional seller
Just curious how you identified the cameo from the pictures of the seller.
Nice!
Years of experience looking at literally thousands of proof sets in original packaging.
Very impressive!
nice, i like
WOW! Very nice find! I wonder if the pictures the seller posted originally on ebay maybe affected the sell price? Congrats!
Honestly, it was glaringly obvious to me from the seller's images that this coin was a lock cameo and a possible DCAM. It's all in how well you interpret images I suppose.
Sweet! What service level did you use at PCGS?
That first pic looked like damage in the field, but I don't collect these.
nice work!
You totally SUCK!!!!!. Awesome work out of ya.
Wow that is awesome. Congratulations - and totally jealous.
Score!!! Congrats! Love it. Great work

Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......

Congrats! Beautiful Frankie!
That's very good news. Congrats!
One of the nicest proof Franklins I have ever seen.
Way to go Don!!!!!!!!
While I may have thought from the seller's images that it would CAM.....I did not see a DCAM.
That is a great score.
Congratulations!
Congratulations on a super score.... Totally awesome.... Cheers, RickO
