so hello fellow points like this this is Glenn back with another video and today
we are gonna have look at cameo proof coins so what is a cameo proof coin well
here I am Drake sterling numismatics leave a link
to this article and you can also discover different aspects of their
actual website but in this article it basically says deep cameo are proof
coins with highly reflective mirror like fields can be described as if cameo or
deep cameo so the more reflective it is and the more darker the actual
reflection actually looks that's basically what he actually looks like
then d they'll be changed from cameo to deep cameo and it gives some more
information about the actual what goes into it but basically this is what
you're actually looking for so the coin can be frosted might not be not all
proof coins were frosted in the past as this 1911 Florin not florence sovereign
actually sees as you can see it's no frosting on it but you inserted there is
a deep reflective field in the background so we're not talking about
the basic image like a king georgia fish fu G oo D X right I'm talking about the
background so you can see that that is quite dark and if we have a look at eBay
so I was looking at eBay and this one says it has deep cameo and as you can
see it's pretty reflective usually they look darker but this one's obviously
reflecting with are light enough foreground so there's actually deep
cameo and as you can see pretty much pick up the image quite
clearly so if we have a look at some mobile coins so here's an ultra cameo
coin and this one's 150 bucks and it's been great by NGC if we have a look you
can see actually looks darker in the background it's basically a really good
cameo coin and had I actually get this I'm not quite clear but I'll resume that
it's a highly polished coins that have this actual look and also when they're
making proof coins it's the initial striking of the coins like the first
probably tens or hundreds of coins would have this look because as you keep
striking the actual coin if reflectiveness of the actual toy to
actually produce this effect would be reduced because there will be damage
happening to die and here we have the effigy so if you actually get a proof
coin most likely it won't be this reflective because it would have been
not minted to a high standard as this coin has been or it has been coin that's
been struck a few times so it would actually have lost its luster
so it's shine on the background soon let's go back and see another coin
basically how I got he's listing up he's just put cameo in the actual search
engine and here's another one from Panama one Balboa as you can see we're
selective bizarre this one's got frosting - 75
that's a cameo coin just becoming out because it's can we approve and it's got
cameo proof well all camera coins our proof and there's another less thing I
hate we gave this one this has quite a few listings quote this is a package so
you get one to 50 cent and one dollar coin and 1986 process but these are all
coming out coins and have a look at this one this is actually quite nice so
there's a frosted and you can see the high reflective background
it actually looks by dark because of the angle of the actual light and here we
have a this 50 cent and you can see there's quite a distinctiveness between
the background and the writing any effigy so that's basically what you're
looking for we came here coins do get more than a
normal process so this set what's it sound for 65 now this proof sets usually
go for about 24 probably 30 dollars I've seen them go for run 996 proof set
so this one's actually worth quite a little bit more and then we got a 5 cent
looks nice so basically this is what you're actually looking for you can see
on top of the actual effigy that's just probably caused by the light as well in
the actual just a reflection of the light so just remember this is actually
not a dark background the background is actually a bronze color but it's just a
light reflection that is causing your light to actually show this effect size
of a screen shot so I can actually use a thumbnail so let's have a look at some
mobile coins and then you go not only coins you've got actually brochures as
well we're not interested in them because we
can't collect this yeah this one's for says it's good gonna 1d cameo so as you
can see the lights not reflecting off but it does give a probably basically
because of the actual weight I've actually taken the photo but as you can
see you can get a darker background if you probably reduce the light to a
certain angle and there should be no scratches no nothing on it and it should
be quite nice and here we have a ultra cameo so we've got cameo the Cameo an
ultra cameo so let's have a look at that one this one's oh it's in a casing so
you're not too sure if it's actually damaged but as you can see this is
stiffness between the actual image and the background the backgrounds quite
reflective still even after nearly 200 years nice coin so you can see the coat
of arms of the UK and the effigy and high points of where I wonder what
rating they actually gave this coin since oh look there's no every image he
asks 62 so proof 62 it's not proof 70 so means the high points actually being
worn down but still $22,000 Wow okay let's try another country okay
here's one a D five dollar coin so these one say doc silver and see the
photograph is actually not that glue that actually doesn't bring it out need
to get some training on photography
but you consider reflectiveness on the actual coin and they date cameo fake so
you can actually make quite a bit of money by getting process separating the
cameos out and grading them so if you are into that top of you and you want to
make this into a business I would recommend that you actually do this so I
just watch a video from I can't remember who was an American coin collector yet
someone else on who actually done this with proof sets in United States
separate the Cameo coins out and when he's Papua New Guinea this is deep cameo
could be images so the Proof Set cameo in Papua New Guinea means the coins and
ever countries strayer's one you case another probably quite a few others
don't tend to remount so you just get proof sets get out the Cameo coins great
him individually because you can actually get a lot more money if you're
graded individually then you can actually get when they are actually in
these sets as you can see here Cook Islands actually issue quite nice coins
and they're actually one of the countries actually get because you know
generally these coins are in that low generally under 100 thousand because the
population of Cook Islands is actually quite small here is this 75 so
seventy-five these are probably message coins probably like 20 to 30 thousand
minted proof coins probably about one or two thousand sets
and here we go it's Australian calling again on a different country Austria
cameo this is grated no so Gimli old only by a cameo coin it's actually
graded silver proof though supposedly
unless you can see is quite a lot of coins that are classified as cameo the
ones I would actually just go for would be any graded coins so here's another
proof $2 from 1999 as you can see the dark background beautiful this one's a
69 deep cam mm-hmm and here's the reverse of the actual coin how much is
that going for 150 see you can buy proof on a 99 sit listen to those 50 to 100 or
again I can't remember let's have a look in the coin book here
we go to coin $6.99 28100 80 bucks 150 bucks so hundreds too much so you're
probably paying over probably hundreds and you just selling just one point for
150 so you can actually make quite a lot of money now let's see how much cameo
coins actually go for looky soo go to sort items
I'll just do a stray lien coins
Australia so if we have a 90 98 one $2.00 it's a
tsuba yes it is $100 Slade I saw that in America and let's try and get rid of
these junk decimal 1977 not graded sue but to me that actually looks like can
be a coin quite a nice coin I wouldn't pay ya I'd pay that much for that coin
why not here we have a 1966 10 cent and that's a
nice cameo coin so I'd actually make every denomination and need to actually
expand it out and as you can see not too many of actually sold but did not cheat
coins actually buy so 1990 $22 we came in our coin hasn't been graded
definitely get these graded if you can cameo Proof Set 1970 $50 mmm that can
probably be worth a lot more than that nine eighty three eighty dollars for a
graded well that's our getting a bit like guess I need to actually watch
another geology video oh nice stuff that again I'm watching our video on Hittites
it's a quite interesting taking their European language which is earlier slang
so basically that's what it came here coin is this one here so I hope you
actually learned something today if you get a proof set make sure you check it
for this type of
Kamio Yvette you can find them they're actually not too common
sometimes they occur on the earliest strikings ever times actually a deliver
each fit so you will be going in searching actually this video helps you
with your coin collection and I hope that you will get into this type of
collecting coins because actually quite nice
something I would be anyway like so thank you very much I'll leave a link
down below to cameo coins and also how awesome coin collecting time thank you
very much for watching my video and have a great day
