<p>[QUOTE=&quot;bsowa1029, post: 1642471, member: 34652&quot;]I bought a 1953 S Franklin half NGC MS66 CAC a few months ago so I wasn&#039;t really looking for another one. But last Sunday night when I was browsing Franklins on eBay I saw one that was NGC MS66 that was ending within the hour. So I looked a little closer at the auction and noticed that the seller didn&#039;t mention the grade in the title, only mentioned &quot;NGC graded&quot; and the pics were very fuzzy so there was only one bid on the item and it was really low.</p><p><br /></p><p>I thought it would be worth throwing in a somewhat low max bid with the chance I&#039;ll get it decently cheap to where I could flip it real quick. So I put in a max bid that I thought would allow me to make at least $20 dollars profit on it just by taking better photos and having a better listing. I ended up winning it for about $40 cheaper than my max bid. I was pretty excited about that, I was certain I&#039;d make at least $50 if I re-sold it right away. Now when it came in the mail and I had it in hand I changed my mind about selling it. At first I wanted to keep both of my 1953 S Franklins, but have since decided to sell one to help fund a recent purchase I plan on making.</p><p><br /></p><p>The CAC one has a little sharper strike but also has a couple nicks on the reverse. While the non CAC&#039;d one isn&#039;t struck as sharply, it doesn&#039;t have any significant mark that is really noticeable on either side of the coin and overall has a little bit cleaner surfaces.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m having trouble deciding which one I&#039;m going to sell.</p><p><br /></p><p>If you were in my position which one do you think you would sell?</p><p><br /></p><p>Use these pictures to help decide. The pictures of the non-CAC&#039;d one are better I think and the one that is CAC&#039;d has the same brilliant surfaces as the other. It doesn&#039;t actually have that sort of hazy look that shows in the photo.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH]236916.vB[/ATTACH][ATTACH]236917.vB[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
