<p>[QUOTE="Cazador, post: 26038104, member: 120597"]Hey CT family, I was wandering how you can tell the difference from a business strike and a proof? Really having a hard time trying to find the difference between the two. I do not believe that a proof coin would have die cracks (like the one I’m posting) but i could be wrong. What’s making me scratch my head is this Coin has a cameo look which, after numerous shots with my phone, I cannot seem to get the picture to match the in hand look. Is it common to have cameo features on business struck coins? Do proof coins have die cracks or did quality control prevent this from happening so long ago?</p><p>Is there some kind of die markers or something to tell the difference between the two?
