    The first coin is slightly CircCam. The second two, not so much, in terms of contrast, though they’re certainly decent looking. The 1875 Seated coin is not a CircCam at all. That Trade dollar looks nice.

    Here’s one I mailed off in a swap today.

    Yes. The contrast is subtle, but it’s there. I like that type. There’s something about ‘em. I’m pretty sure it’s that full-bodied lion.

    I believe these coins would fulfill @lordmarcovan's definition of CircCam coins.

    Can’t recall if I posted this. Not quite a full circcam as not a ton of contrast, but a gorgeous original coin and close.

    Almost, I do like the look of this, might be a down grade by the Sheldon scale but an upgrade in looks for my 7070. 1861 IHC 1-horz.jpg IHC.jpg
