Here is one of my better Franklins. I don't think it is uncirculated. I got most of them from the bank the year they were released. Or, I traded with friends. I do have a 1959 Proof Set.

 

This is my best (and only) Franklin.
It's for my US type set.
It grades NGC MS-65 FBL.

 

All my Franklin's are at home except this one old fellow encased in Lucite that resides on my desk. I would surmise that he was likely polished up a bit before being entombed. Still is my most enjoyable paperweight.

 

I've got a bunch of "bests". Here's one I like...

 

Two years ago in Chicago I added a 1957 and 1957D to my stash and met the man himself!

 

Most shiny

 

All time favorite, from the guy with the awesome paperweight, @Randy Abercrombie


Thanks again

 

1st one in my 7070 set and the second one is in my 20th Century set 55 Bugs Bunny

 

This thread made me take out my Franklin album, and to my disappointment I found this one with a spot tone on it. I am not sure it was from, but those who know me know I love blast white coins and this one is now with spot toning...may need to find a replacement. Still, that reverse is amazing!





And just for fun, 1958 P type I and II
