I really didn't pay any attention to my Franklin Half dollar set.
Then I saw one of these for sale.

One in MS64 sold back in January for $46.

 

I think it's a fairly neat variety since it is a class III doubled die. It was created with a Type II reverse over a Type I reverse. Here is an image of the eagle from the FranklinLover website:

@mynamespat I decided to take a photo of the eagle.
Plus I want to share my special state of the art method I used yes that is a flashlight reflector.
