Nice details, the coin shows contrast, but I believe the haze in the fields will not allow it to go cameo. Am I the only one who is concerned about the color? I feel it may have been dipped in some sort of solution and that's what's hazing up the fields. To me it easily has 65+ details.

It looks like "altered surfaces" to me, from these photos. Edited to add: does appear to be a proof, however.

 

Agreed....color is just too far off original...however, if it's original then I'd say 65RB-CA

That's exactly what I was going to say.
