Thank you!

Nothing feels quite as nice as freeing coins from the plastic prison of a proof set! I'll have to check my 62's for the varieties. Thanks for sharing!

[@rockysramblings]

You betcha!

[@23Keith23]

I have a friend bron in 62 and my mother as well. So very cool.

I've watched a dozen videos trying to determine the dime. i have a 1964 cameo and cannot find a value. beautiful out of the proof. Was going to send for grading but now not so sure.

[@brad8606]

Ive opened tons of these through out my life the one thing I learned is I was mistaking die clashing for doubling. If it doesn’t follow the examples of the DDOs it’s more then likely die clashing.

[@rockysramblings]

I’ve made that mistake as well. So I try to be more careful. I can clearly see “metal on metal” but I do worry if it doesn’t match pics exactly that it won’t get the variety attribution. Sometimes ya just gotta pay to find out 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@NefariousEnough]

Get yourself some canned air for dust removal. Spittle droplets will spot a coin and make it look like someone attacked it with bird shot.

[@rockysramblings]

I try my best to contain my spit when blowing dust off coins 😆 good advice tho 👍🏻

[@brianleonard6885]

Not enough frost for cameo, in my opinion, good video

[@shanelewis617]

So BEAUTIFUL!
I WAS BORN IN '62!

[@rockysramblings]

Congratulations! It’s a great year 😁

Have to watch your video 2nd time. It's like going to college

[@rockysramblings]

😅

Great video nice coins

[@rockysramblings]

Thank you kindly

[@leolambert5949]

Very beautiful coins, but why are you handling them without any gloves? I would be concerned about fingerprints.

[@rockysramblings]

Rims only. I’m not leaving prints on them. Furthermore, any I send in will be sent for restoration. I’d be more likely to drop them with gloves as well.

[@marymastromauro8164]

,what causes the toning, the wrapper?

[@rockysramblings]

Metal will tarnish and corrode over time when exposed to oxygen however these are usually sealed pretty well. The packages must have been able to breath a bit and the Manila envelopes actually have a substance in them that can contribute to the toning. Sometimes you get some really nice toning on old coins.

[@dropdeadfrd9951]

I would recommend using gloves

[@rockysramblings]

Thanks

[@DJbabynoneck]

You have to be PCGS best customer

[@rockysramblings]

Haha you’d think they’d throw me a damn PR70 or DMPL once in a while 😆

[@alancanavan2962]

Can you explain what you mean by restoration ?

[@rockysramblings]

PCGS offers restoration service. Basically it’s cleaning but they don’t damage the coin in the process. However no one wants to say “cleaning” when it comes to coins.

[@ramoncardenas2339]

Can you explain cameo ?! Plz. Wat does that mean in "coin business "

[@joestewart7487]

where gloves next time.

[@zacharywilson8614]

Would you be interested in selling any of those coins?

[@rockysramblings]

Which ones are you thinking?
