<p>[QUOTE=&quot;19Lyds, post: 2103547, member: 15929&quot;]All I can say is that DCAM&#039;s are more prevalent on 67 SMS coins and comparing a 67 to a 65 or a 64 might be a fools chase.</p><p><br /></p><p>PCGS is really tough on the DCAM designation and often defaults to CAM if there is any doubt. ,Primarily for the grade guarantee.</p><p><br /></p><p>Your 1965, you state &quot;I have a 65 that is DCAM on the obverse....&quot; but you have not mentioned the reverse which is probably key to getting the DCAM designation. If its not a DCAM on the reverse, then the coin will default to CAM.</p><p><br /></p><p>Also, try to remember that not ALL DCAM&#039;s are of equal quality. In other words, I have some DCAM&#039;s where I wonder how they ever got DCAM compared to some of my CAM&#039;s which I thought were surely DCAM............</p><p><br /></p><p>As for the &quot;stain&quot;, it might not have been present when the coin was initially graded. If that&#039;s the case, then a 66 is out of the question. Typically, the numeric grade is influenced by the number of hairlines present on the coin.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
