<p>[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 2751892, member: 112"]There's a bit more to it than just the contrast. The frost has to be full, and equal on all of the raised devices on both sides, without even the tiniest of breaks or weakness in the frost. Just a tiny bit of weakness on a single letter, or even a part of the letter or numeral, let alone the primary devices, is enough to cause the coin not to get the designation. The mirrors also have to be full, with no obstructions or blurring anywhere. And that's just to get CAM. To get DCAM the requirements are even more stringent.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
