[QUOTE="Richard01, post: 92862, member: 2700"]Yes, black and white is another excellent way to describe it! I think that there is a lot of confusion over proof and cameo as two different things. Also, the low tier TPG's do call all sorts of interesting things cameo that would never pass the test for a real grader. I love that frankie by the way... hard to get solid cameo in those... So, we have high relief or deep strike as one thing We have cameo as a different thing, and of course proof. So, you can high a high relief deep cameo proof... or a poorly struck no cameo proof no wonder it takes a long time to learn this hobby! Or the above cent, which is strongly struck, not a proof, and not a cameo... and yes, it is showing a touch of wear. Really nice coin, though, for the right price. Hard to find great AU's like that for fair money![/QUOTE]
