<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Catbert, post: 412141, member: 12718&quot;]I have never purchased a cameo coin before (unless proof sets count). I will be going to the St. Louis show in a few weeks and will be on the hunt for a 1959 Proof 66 or 67 Franklin Half. I want this year because it is my birth year. A friend of mine spoke with Rick Tomaska (?), a Franklin specialist dealer, at the ANA show who said that this can be a tough year for decent cameos. There was only one at the show and it had a small white spot in one of the letters and so my friend didn&#039;t purchase it for me. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>What general advice do you guys have when buying a cameo coin? </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>When inspecting the coin, what are problems that I should look for that could indicate the coin should not be purchased?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
