<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GreatWalrus, post: 1368811, member: 35925&quot;]Hey everyone.&nbsp; I was just reading <a href="http://www.cointalk.com/t200351/" class="internalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.cointalk.com/t200351/">this thread </a> (trying not to hijack it) and it spoke of different eagle varieties on the back of the 1959 Franklin half dollar.&nbsp; It peaked my curiosity, and knowing I have a 1959 Franklin, I thought I&#039;d check which type mine is.</p><p><br /></p><p>I read about the varieties at <a href="http://koinpro.tripod.com/Articles/195950cRevVars.htm" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://koinpro.tripod.com/Articles/195950cRevVars.htm" rel="nofollow">this website</a>, but I&#039;m not sure of its credibility, or if there is a better resource. I&#039;m looking at mine and it appears to only have 3 feathers to the left of the eagle.&nbsp; It also has a blob/hole thing at the top of its chest. So I&#039;m leaning toward it either being a type 2 or a type 1/2 DDR (discussed in link above).</p><p><br /></p><p>Sorry I don&#039;t have the ability to get any closer of pictures.&nbsp; But I left them in their highest resolution.&nbsp; The coin is about VF20 I&#039;d say, so it is a bit worn.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thank you.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i.imgur.com/PhPaT.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i.imgur.com/vnpFi.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i.imgur.com/vDBFe.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
