Modern methods of manufacture by the Mint provides collectors with a fresh supply of cameos every year. But it hasn't always been so. Prior to 1970, no one paid much attention to so-called cameo coinage. Frosted devices were merely something that happened ever so often. People collected because they wanted a proof of that date, not because it had contrast. In the years prior to 1970, cameo coinage was an outcome of die preparation, planchet preparation, press operation, and die maintenance. The rule of thumb has long been that no cameo coinage was produced between 1936 and 1942. The present lot clearly shows that is not an absolute.<BR>The surfaces are full red and unmellowed. Close examination with a loupe reveals a few tiny contact marks and flyspecks of carbon that account for the grade, but all in all this piece has a pristine appearance and actually appears much finer than PR65 to the unaided eye. The devices are heavily frosted and present a strong cameo contrast against the deeply mirrored fields. This coin is sure to be of great interest to the large number of type collectors who are building an Ultra Cameo type set. </FONT></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE><BR><A name=PricesRealized></A><TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width="100%" bgColor=#000000 border=0><TBODY><TR><TD width="100%"><TABLE cellSpacing=1 cellPadding=3 width="100%" border=0><TBODY><TR><TD width="100%" bgColor=#79735c><A name=PR><FONT face=arial color=#ffffff size=3><B>Previous Prices from Heritage Auctions</B> </FONT></A></TD></TR><TR><TD bgColor=#f6f6ed>No Prior Data Recorded </TD></TR><TR><TD bgColor=#ffffff><FONT face=arial size=1 ?>PLEASE NOTE: All prices realized reflect the final hammer price PLUS the buyer's premium in auctions that charge a buyer's premium.
