On one side it has what looks like the presidential seal and above the eagles head is a circle with 13 stars. Around the entire eagle there is 50 stars. Then on the other side there is what I think is the freedom bell with 20 stars around it. I will take a picture of it later and post it. But if you can go by my description and tell me what it is that would be great. ]]> US Coins Forum smbainter http://www.cointalk.com/t79820/ AGE 1/2, 1/4 oz vs: AGB 1/2, 1/4 oz http://www.cointalk.com/t79764/ Sun, 22 Nov 2009 05:35:03 GMT american eagle unc gold: (retail value) 2006w 1/2 ounce - 18,850 - $1,250.00 2006w 1/4 ounce - 19,925 --- $900.00 2007w 1/2 ounce - 13,358 - $1,200.00 2007w 1/4 ounce - 14,615 --- $850.00 2008w 1/2 ounce - 15,682 - $1,650.00 2008w 1/4 ounce ---8,883 - $1,300.00 american eagle unc gold: (retail value)

You stumble upon this listing on Ebay - a 1955 NGC MS-65 FBL Franklin Half. Assume further that the picture below was all you could see of the coin. Would you buy it? How much would you pay for it?
