<p>[QUOTE="Ana Silverbell, post: 4984278, member: 75156"]Franklin halves are notoriously difficult to grade by photo because take for example the obverse, it looks as though Franklin's hair over and below the ear have wear but that could be uncirculated with a weak strike. If you are able to see consistent luster over the relief I would go MS63. I like the bag mark below the "9" in 1948; it looks like Ben Franklin's tie is sticking out. As an aside: I find this coin very appealing and I would keep it raw if I owned it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
