<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 1030232, member: 112&quot;]Cameo is determined by the amount of frost on the coin&#039;s devices and nothing else. It has nothing to do with the color, or the grade for that matter. So for your coins not to get the Deep Cameo designation or the Cameo Designation, then the frost must be lacking someplace.</p><p><br /></p><p>Honestly, there are a great many people who think their coins are worthy of the CAM or DCAM designations when they really are not. So you are definitely not alone on that count. Probably more people misjudge this than ever get it right.</p><p><br /></p><p>As for the grades being lower than you expected, there are numerous reasons that could explain that. It could be hairlines, it could be tiny hits (they are very particular with Proofs when it comes to contact marks), it could even be a poor strike or low reflectivity in the mirrors. And given the date you stated - all of those things are the norm and not the exception.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
