That's an unusual grade for this coin. As far as I know, these didn't circulate. In hand, can you find the wear? Do you agree with this grade?
There are quite a few examples of auctions where a coin was listed as a proof, but it is now considered to be a PL example. Before reputable...

I used to collect FBL Franklins. Capturing the bell lines accurately is absolutely one of the hardest things to show accurately in a photo.
Late to this, but I'm surprised by the bean on the Isabella. That dipped white look is exactly what I would expect CAC to not bean.
With these new pictures, I think yes, it is probably FBL.
The Redbook is an absolute must own book - and is the perfect answer to your question.
The only place that actually wants them is Ecuador. They circulate freely there, and are the standard currency. We ship them by the boatload. I...
Are there many coins with seahorses? I can't imagine that's a terribly common subject! Where is the seahorse on that? I must be missing it.
Nah, I disagree. This looks like fairly standard mint set toning, and with the luster it appears decently attractive. I'd guess 65 on the grade.
Yes, they use only the bottom set of lines. Coincidentally, that's the set of lines that can't really be seen in these photos.
Yeah, I'll go green on both of them.
Ha! That is absolutely fantastic!
