VERY nice Dunk! How long did it take?

Thanks folks!!! Took 3+ years or so. . . I still can't decide what coin(s)/currency to "specialize" in. About the time I get it figured out, I change my mind.

 

Just got this one today--Been looking for a nice, toned 51 Proof. They are not easy to find, and this one was extremely affordable, for a coin with eye appeal like that.

 

Here's a couple more Franklins I just scored

 

I know for sure I wish I found it 1st !!!:yes:!!!
:thumb:I think I would gamble one more time and send it back ask for details???maybe it would come back with Cameo
Nice Gemmy Coin No matter!:yes:!

 

I may send it out to NGC and go for "upgrade only" or no slab. I figured it should cross as a 65 with no problems, and wondered about the cameo, as 1950 and 1951 cameos are not easy to find--probably worth the gamble.

 

nice coin. I have been looking for a '51 for more than a year. I finally won a PF66 with nice but slight tone just yesterday. all the ones I see on the 'bay go for too much but I got one at another auction for $329. can't wait to get my sweaty mitts on it. it's the last one I needed.

 

Here is mine.

 

1956 PR-66 Cameo

& 1954 Bugs Bunny

 

Here is the 51 Franklin proof with my photos. I know you thought it might be cameo, Jello, but I don't think so--just very nice colors and very contrasty. I could see it as a PF 66, but no point in sending it in for that. Very happy with the coin, and only paid $275, which is a bargain for a high quality 51 Franklin proof.

 

Nice score, Paul. They are both great!

Just plucked this one off of DLRC tonight, and now I have the full set of Franklin proofs. Pretty nice green bean coin!!!

VERY nice set!

 

The Franklins do get some interesting toning...

Here's a 61 D I had to have



and a sweet 56

 

The '52 Proof just came in the mail today. PF 65???? Looks more than a bit under graded to me.
