Nah, but the poor schmuck who submitted it in a crappy flip should.

My prediction of the post dip regrade result is: MS 67 CAM.
If under the haze the mirrors are to die for, then I would not even rule out a DCAM designation.
Nice pick up Russ. Good luck.
Dip and re-submit? What are the chance of 66 or 67?

No chance of DCAM. The obverse devices are too silvery. Could be a nice cameo, though. It was cheap enough that if it doesn't work, it's okay.

Wow I just looked at the price guide, looks like it would be worth the effort to find out on this one.

Surprisingly, in the case of 1965 and 1966 DCAM SMS Kennedys, the price guide is pretty close. But, there's a reason those values are so high. The coins are just flat rare. I have never made a 1965 or 1966 in DCAM, while I have made several 1967's in DCAM.

If it only grades 65CAM after a dip, I won't submit it. I'll sell it raw for about $20 and be out four bucks.

And if he swallows the coin, he becomes his toning machine.

However he does it, I believe Russ can make that coin nice again. After all, he's an old pro at this.
