Absolutely gorgeous, original surfaces. I love the look of this coin. Grade, I think it might make VF-30, but it tops out there. It's a solid,...
Well, here's mine. NGC MS-65 PL. The only PL in the entire series. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
I agree that this is an attractive coin. In terms of grade... that is definitely a high end 64. The biggest things that I can think might hold it...
It was already graded when I bought it. The grade might be a little difficult from images because of a couple of things. First, you might be...
I've sold most of my Franklins, but I'll probably never sell this one. NGC MS-65+ FBL PL [ATTACH] [ATTACH]

I only have one. NGC MS-64 PL: [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Very cool, man, very cool. In your opinion, what's the dot in the field in front of her eyes? Either you and I have very different tastes, or...
Yes, I have that exact same piece. I got it as a free give-away at the 2006 FUN show from a booth that was set up, demonstrating ancient coining...
Are these the solid copper ones? I know they made a version that was a pre-1982 composition instead of the zinc cores. I wonder if that had...
That is some fantastic color on those, absolutely marvelous. Were they stored in a warm or humid place?
Fun Fact: in early years of Franklin half collecting, they actually valued a readable "Pass and Stow" as the key detail. The bell lines were not...
As you're aware, I'm sure, this is a key date, so grading is going to tend a bit tighter. This does not have what it takes to make EF-40 (I'm...
Based on the wear pattern and the weight, I suspect this was probably ground down with a mechanical grinder, rather than naturally worn. Still,...
Just so I'm clear we are talking about the same thing - are we discussing the line that starts near the center of the bottom of the middle...
I'm not entirely sure what bubble I popped.... you asked if it was an out of collar strike and that's exactly what it (sort-of) is. It's also...
What you show is called a "tilted partial collar." It is a type of broadstrike (a broadstrike is a coin struck without a collar). I would probably...
Well, lets get some terms straight first: A "blank" is the round piece of metal punched from the strip (you may also see this sometimes called a...
Wow! That is a really nice one!
Comes up with giant red warning messages as "known dangerous webpage." I don't know why. I don't know what server you use. I don't know what...
