Most proof 1885 Morgan dollars boast cameo devices and reflective fields, though a rare handful or two showcase deep cameo frosting and deeply mirrored fields, qualifying them as DCAM. All told, the majority of 1885 proof Morgans are encountered in the grades of PR60-64, with a smaller number in the PR65 or better range. A few grade PR67 or higher, with some certified as high as PR69.
