    look at a proof 55 Frankie, the eagle on the reverse, that is a type 1. Now look at the eagle on a 57 that is a Type 2


    Only because I don't have pics here at work

    Superb information on determining the Type 1 v. Type 2. Other than internet exploring, and real-world pricing guidelines???

    Why should we look? Is there a premium for one over the other??

    Rare?

    Yes the type 1 is the scarcer of the two and cams and dcams are worth nice premiums.
