I made a quick edit on that, Rick.:)
Dave's been a CT member for over seven years... I hope by now he would realize the rarity of a '65 Franklin (which would include the elusive '64,...
Here's a good rust remover, I use it on all my rusty steel coins: [IMG]
The OP hasn't chimed in since he posted the photos in post #8 with the notation "I don't see the problem." I hope that after all the comments...
The thing about this type of auction is once you open the roll, you're stuck with it. You can't return it.

Well, it does have some value over face, especially if sold on eBay. A check of completed auctions shows this type of error sells in the $4.00...
I think that's what Rick said in post #9 and #13, lol.
I think that's what Rick said in post #9, lol.
Of course, that's with the coin mounted in a key chain or pendant. It's amazes me that people would pay $30 for a half dollar and pendant worth...
However, like every other retailer, they are "OUT of STOCK" (and have been for many, many months). No sense posting something that is unavailable,...
Peaked my interest also... I emailed the seller and he stated the note feels "slightly thicker". So, there ya go...
Separate names with a comma.
