Owner's Description

Original, never dipped coin with the cameo designation. The toning is a bit blotchy, especially on the reverse, which may have lowered the grade by a point. Still I prefer Proof coins that have never been dipped to those which grade higher but have had "a bath." The mint on this issue was 600 coins, which is average for the series. The variety is not listed in Breen's Proof coin book although he did write of a third Proof variety in his Encyclopedia.
