    Was wondering (in your opinion) if this 1957 Franklin would be considered to have FBL or Incomplete Bell Lines (IBL):confused: Thanks for taking a look.

    It does look like there is some seperation in the lines largely to the left of the crack? I will have to say incomplete.

    Extremely unlikely if the pics are accurate...Mike

    p.s. try lighting the coin from below instead of above -- it makes the bell lines stand out more.

    Gotta find the coin first, :D LOL I took this picture about six or seven months ago and my collection is "er...RAMBLING". This particular shot was with an older Sony FD91 and natural light. BTW, I have to vote for IBL. IMHO, you have to have full strong lines to be considered FBL, but still not bad for a coinshop discount bin pickup.

    Thanks for looking
