    When I collected coins I first began with the Cameo Collection of .50, .25, .10, .05 and .01 cent coins. Once owned the entire set in deep Cameo sold it and made some very good money...all except the .01, .05 and .10 coins.

    Those are really nice and it brought back memories for me.. Thanks for posting them.

    You have an excellent start on the Rosies...some beautiful coins.

    (The Set I had was 1950 thru 1964 Cameo's.)

    One of the Cameo 50 cent coins (1952) the dies for that coin were so over polished with diamond dust that the Cameo effect was made up of all the polish marks form that process. It was simply just wonderful to look at under magnification...I forget the name of the book but there is a Book written on just the Cameo Proofs form 1950-1964..within those pages it tells of this particular polishing method on the 52s.
