IMHO these are nice maybe slightly above average. No spotty or hazed coins but no Cameo either. Would someone like to post some Cameo coins of this 65-67 era just to show the difference. My contention is a lot of these 40% halves got melted later because no one seemed to like the SMS sets and that was a way to get their money back.

I snuck up on this set 5 years ago, but it's unusual.
