<p>[QUOTE=&quot;LibertyBell, post: 160738, member: 6142&quot;]I ordered a 1959 mint set from a coin company that does business online. Although the set was not advertised as &quot;sealed&quot; or &quot;unsearched&quot;, the envelope was sealed when it arrived. I have several old mint and proof sets and this envelope certainly LOOKED like it could be nearly 50 years old. I opened it, and imagine my surprise when I discovered I had two FBL halves. Both are top notch. Although I will NEVER have these slabbed, I am quite confident that they would reach a 66. Now, I know that slabbing them, and being&nbsp; lucky (yes lucky because that&#039;s what it takes to get an NGC 66, not a great coin) enough to get a 66FBL would make them book out at about 8 g&#039;s total. Even if they aren&#039;t 66FBL, I&#039;d bet my life they are an easy 65FBL.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I&#039;d like to post pics, but every time I get a $100 to spend, it goes for coins instead of a QX microscope. I really have to get one of those though.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Steve[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
