What coin type(s) are you talking about? I don't know the full specifics, but I do know that they used the CAM designation on far fewer series in...
Side note: I am unsure if "Assurances Compagnie La Prévoyance" is a generic term or a reference to a specific company? I'm also a bit foggy on...
France (Compagnie La Prévoyance): silver jeton (insurance token) engraved by Paulin Tasset, 1869 [ATTACH] Obverse: Nude, draped female figure...
Great coin, @Orielensis. I've been wanting a gigliato for a while. Here are a few Crusader-era and gros coins. Sicily (Norman Kings): gold...
Great historic coin, @Orfew! Here's my old one. That small picture is all I ever had of it, and the ones on the NGC cert page are pretty...

Definitely damaged, or "DEFDAM", as @paddyman98 would say.
While those are only about average (at best) in terms of condition, they're pretty darned nice for circulation finds (especially the 1905 nickel)....
Vetranio is one I've never had.
I concur with all of the above. To me, technical grade means relatively little. It's all about the eye appeal. This coin has that. I'd call it...
Sure as heck looks like a "D" to me? o_O
Here's the outcome of my recent 5-piece Regular (Gold Shield) submission. If you click on the first image for each coin, the link will take you...
So here are the results of the drawing. [ATTACH] The random number generator chose the number 18. Post #18 was by @Penny Luster!...
Update: I will let this contest run until Friday, August 7th. The drawing should take place on or shortly after that date. Now I'm about to...
Separate names with a comma.
