    One of my all-time favorites just showed up in my dwelling place--the '50 Franklin Proof. I've tried to find one of these that I liked for years, so I just shot a quick image with it sitting on my desk--definitely not the best exposure without a tripod, but wanted to take a quick snapshot. Sometimes ya just fall in love with a coin!! BTW, scratches are on the slab, not the coin. This baby made my day!

    Yes, both the obverse and reverse have very light golden toning.
