Thunderkat84 Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 Was wondering if this could possibly get a cameo designation, I know it's only opinions on photos, just looking for the more experienced opinion(s), I got it in a mint set at auction last year, I appreciate opinions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member: Seasoned Veteran DWLange Posted May 25 Member: Seasoned Veteran Share Posted May 25 I can't comment on the Cameo aspect from those photos, but your coin clearly is not the Accented Hair variety. bsshog40 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkFeld Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 Welcome to the forum. In addition to the coin not being the Accented Hair variety, it doesn’t appear to be a Cameo, either. bsshog40 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RWB Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 However -- it is a profile.... OK, not much consolation, but think positive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunderkat84 Posted May 26 Author Share Posted May 26 Curious as to how it is not, when the dye markers are all there, I'm not questioning or saying anybody's wrong I don't have enough experience to say that I'm just curious as to why do you come to that conclusion? The only reason I asked is because I've received a different opinion want to know they're popular forum, again I am looking to learn and dont mean to come off like I'm disagreeing thank u again it's much appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many of them even operate as coin dealers. Quintus Arrius 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
