<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 1084688, member: 112&quot;]What Tomaska is telling you is that if you truly want a well struck coin that you should ignore the special designation FBL for not all FBL coins are well struck. He is trying to point out to you other areas to check to see if the coin really is well struck or not.</p><p><br /></p><p>This is true of all the special designations for all denominations, not just Frankies. Any experienced collector knows this, or should. How many FH SLQ&#039;s have you seen where the rivets are missing ? How many FS Jeff&#039;s have you seen where the windows of Monticello are not even there ?</p><p><br /></p><p>Thus if you want truly well struck coins you don&#039;t pay any attention to the special designations but instead you look to see if the coin really is well struck or not. Far more often than not a well struck coin will not even have the special designation.</p><p><br /></p><p>Special designations are a marketing ploy, nothing more.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
