I personally would call the coin a 66, but I could definitely see it getting a 7. The fields are pristine, and the toning is beautiful. There are...
Coins, Typically the lines can only be full on mint state coins, as they are easily removed by wear.
I thought the date was the indicator for the 81s? Sorry I'm not being any help here, I still need to learn a lot about modern coins. :(
Sorry about that dave. There are two different definitions of full bell lines (even more confusing!!), some people believe that if the bottom...
Oh, and as far as determining the value of full bell line franklin halves, I believe the greysheet lists prices for those.

Your coin appears to have a large date, however, the 5 is not closed, which makes me further suspect the coin. Is the 1 plainly doubled to the...
I would also say no. As gd said, for DMPL, you typically want to be able to see clear reflectivity from 4-8 inches away. A good way to do this, is...
Hi, Holy mackerel! I'm almost 100% sure that is the major variety. As for the grade, I think the coin would grade an au-53. As far as the value,...
Well, mostly the hair detail looks like the 1921's, as well as the shape of the eagle's breast. If you found a 1921 picture, and placed it next to...
I personally think the 90 percent figure is an overestimate. I have many gold coins, and only about 5-10 percent are fake IMO.
