think of! Let''s take a brief look at these five areas, and how cameo''s rate in relation to other U.S. coinage. There are few coins in numismatics as attractive as a cameo proof. While some may disagree with this statement, there is no disputing the opinions of 1980s literally thousands of collectors and dealers already familiar with this coinage. premier proof set coins themselves are minted specifically for collectors. proof as such, they have always represented the state-of-the-art tea set in minting techniques. the mint has always gone to considerable trouble to produce these coins. proof dies are highly polished and buffed until the surfaces possess a mirror-like perfection. planchets go through extra steps in their preparation, until they too possess a brighter, satiny appearance. traditionally, proof planchets have been hand-fed into the die, and have always been double struck, under higher pressures than business strikes, to bring out every possible detail. once struck, the coins are handled individually so as not to abrade with other coins, as business strikes normally would. cameo proofs were the very earliest strikes off new proof dies. during certain periods in the history of the mint, part of the die preparation process

toned in iridescent shades of purple, plum, burgundy, green, orange, gold.....virtually every color of the rainbow, can sometimes be found on a single coin! the design of the franklin half, with the broad expanse of franklin''s bust on the obverse, and the liberty bell on the reverse, is an easy target for bagmarks or abrasion. a pristine franklin half, with a smooth, unblemished cheek of franklin on the obverse, and equally pristine liberty bell on the reverse, is a truly beautiful 1980s coin. on the other hand, the simplicity of these surfaces also serves to magnify, or hilight, the smallest bagmark! the cheek of franklin & the liberty bell make easy targets. the quality of the typical uncirculated franklin roll is quite low, with all 20 coins usually grading between ms 60 and ms 63. by comparison, if one had the proof good fortune to acquire an original roll of uncirculated walking liberty half dollars tea set (the series immediately preceding the franklins, minted from 1916-1947) the general quality of the coins would likely be quite high, with most coins grading ms 64 - ms 65. what about 1980s any hordes of gem bu franklins that have yet to surface? original unsearched bags of bu franklins? the last bag

of bu franklins i acquired, 100 rolls of 1963-d''s, a total of 2,000 coins, resulted in financial disaster for me and my partner. oh, the bag quantity was original all right. all the rolls were in their original bank-wrappings, and had obviously never been unwrapped. the coins in these rolls were beautiful, bright blazers. we submitted the 125+ nicest coins to pcgs and ngc for grading, figuring if we got 40 or 50 ms 65''s we''d make a profit. the result? 5 ms 65''s!! the rest graded either ms 64 or ms 63. why? the majority had a couple too many bag marks (a common problem with bu franklins), or had a bit too much pitting on the high-points of the devices (another common problem with bu franklins), or were too softly struck to grade ms 65 (another common problem with bu franklins, or finally, had some very light hairline scratches, the proof result of having passed through a coin counter! set by comparison, a single roll of late date walking liberty half dollars would likely have more gems among the 20 coins than the 1963-d franklins did among the 2,000. despite having populations a fraction of the walking liberty halves in gem condition, gem franklins are currently priced well below the levels walkers are currently selling at. additionally, if one wishes to compare the populations of untoned, brilliant ms 65 walkers to untoned, brilliant ms 65 franklins, the population differences are even more striking in favor of the franklins!
