    Too darkly toned?

    What was it graded?

    The darkness is just because i didn't have enough light on the pic. It's a really old ANACS holder. PF-63.

    Very hard to tell by the pics honestly. Could you try some other pics? But what I can tell from the pics it looks like the coat has some weakness in it of the frost, (basically just not enough there IMHO) which would keep it from grading a cameo. But better pics would help more.

    Phoenix :cool:

    It wasn't graded as a cameo because it isn't. See the way the light reflects off the bust - all bright and shiny. If it was a cameo that would not happen.

    Yes, the devices don't look frosted at all to me = no cameo.
