<p>[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 97907, member: 112"]It's quite simple, the mint always produced Proof dies with the cameo on the devices. But the cameo effect only last so long on a die before it wears out. And in years past the mint would keep right on striking the coins. Then in the early '70s they changed their practice, and when the cameo would begin to wear out they would replace the worn die with a new one.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
