    Great looking coins, the war nickel is a beauty and the Franklins are both very nice as well does the 1954 have a FBL?.....Alan

    Also picked up some silver certificates. Some are star notes which one is uncirculated. Got a combo deal which is why I picked them up

    Thanks Alan. No the 54 does not have FBL. Solid gem though, possible 66.

    bsowa1029 I remembered after seeing your Franklin I also have one, and only one LOL. I had forgotten about. I bought it over a year ago and put it away it is FBL, here is a picture of the coin. The picture is from the seller who is a good friend.....Alan[​IMG].[​IMG]

    It's a great looking coin. One reason for it being FBL is that it is a Proof. All Proofs are FBL.

    My three newest Liberty Seated Dimes from Gerry Fortin at American Rare Coins. They are all of the F-104 variety for their particular year.

    I have not seen a 1965 clad quarter look like that since....1965! And, that 1936 Mercury dime ain't too shabby, either!

    That shouldnt be a Bugs Bunny Variety. I dont think any were ever discovered on Proof Franklins (could be wrong there) but theres also some other tell-tale signs generally associated with the BB variety. You typically see the very top of the bridge of the nose missing on the Bugs Bunny coins, and also can pick up the die polish lines at the back of the head and alot of times right in front of the teeth. I believe thats where they tried to hide the more obvious marks from that die clash
