Thoughts on this Jefferson

Excuse the dust, it's on the flip.

It is not exactly cheating, I prefer to consider it creative problem solving!!!

    Its a beauty. Hey, is that dust on the "S" in trust? Or is that some kind of die shadow thingy?

    It's time to dust that coin, Marty.

    I recommend Pledge.

    Wipe the coin gently in a circular motion with a soft cloth to clean all that dust offimage

    Maybe the graders will sneeze on it to get the dust off!

    Do you think that coin will go CAM or DCAM? To me the reverse looks DCAM but the obverse looks CAM at best.

    Then again, my opinion could be colored by the thorough spanking PCGS gave a 1971-S proof set I submitted.

    Looks like it could have a DCAM shot, but, check the inside of the archways on the far left and right of Monticello -- that's where DCAMs go to die on 68-73 Jeff proofs. A little brilliance inside the arches and forget it.

    68 cams aren't worth the grading fees and your obverse looks only cam.

    Actually Marty, since that one's obviously NOT an AU-58, you can go ahead and send it to me so you don't ruin your reputation.

    the pic doesnt really show extra frosty devices so CAM only from what I can tell.

    also the fields on the reverse above the Monticello looks cool with the dust on it.

    it looks like a clear starry night sky. image

    Wow, they even caught the stars in the sky above Monticello!...image
    What is money, in reality, but dirty pieces of paper and metal upon which privilege is stamped?
