    I recently added this coin to my Franklin herd. The image is in hand and the scratches are on the slab.

    Wow, if I didn't think I knew better, I'd guess 1949.

    Guessing 1958 from a mint set. Gorgeous toning.

    OK... 1953? Wonderful toning. Y'know a couple of years ago, I bought some of these 1 oz. rounds. Much nicer than this art. B. Franklin almost looked good on these.

    I'll take a guess if you show me the obverse.

    Whoa I was the closest! I guess even a blind pig finds an acorn every once in awhile.

    Looks like it sat in one of those blue coin folders. You know, not the albums that display both sides, but the cardboard folders that do not show the reverse.
