I got a group of proof Jeffersons yesterday, and found this Both are proofs but the top one clearly has a satin finish to it. Were there 2 different issues of proofs from the mint that year?
Their is some Satin finish stikes in Nnc Smithstionium display but getting 1 would be very very rare! But Nothing impossible. If one could cost a lot to get a Tpg to Agree too a grade of Sp-6?
Coin World August issue has the Nnc Smithstionium collection . They have a Satin finish. So finding one would be very very rare Finding. But Nothing impossible but getting a Tpg to agree???. Here one of the photo in issue I don't want to get copyright issues that's why it's cropped a lot and only one.but asap it will be on the free RRS Google reader with all the grades Ngc graded them.
yeah, I saw that article the other day. A Kennedy 1968-D on the cover. Good article, I had to smile when I saw you mentioned it. Not to sound to dumb (which I am sometimes ) but from the original answer, which one is it that is the more cameo finish? I'm still trying to get a handle on that...
Paul that's not dumb that is called a brain fart I have the issue in my car. I will re-read in the am due to brain fart. Also see what on site and is out on reader. «©ell»
The more contrast between the fields and the devices = deeper cameo. So, the first one is more cameo. Frosty devices with mirror fields.
I do not see a Satin type of finish on either of the coins shown in the OP. Satin refers to a finish that looks like it has been sand blasted.
I brought up the Nnc collection at the Smithstoneian . They have found out the US mint was striking a Sp finish . That was sent to the Nnc collection. «©ell»
What I was saying is that both of those appear to be normal proof strikes to me back then now all of the proofs came out deep cameo.
