<p>[QUOTE="Skyman, post: 1980218, member: 28299"]Thank you for your kind words. The reverse is fairly plebeian. However, the coin was out of a 1958-D Mint Set "card". I bought the other Franklin also, as well as one of the Roosevelts. I had the two Franklins slabbed together, my avatar graded 66* and the other graded 65. I wasn't surprised by the 65, but I was surprised that it did not star given that the colors and the luster are the same. The reverse toner may not look quite as vibrant in the image below as the obverse toner, but the colors and the luster are the same (ditto for the Roosevelt). I did not slab the Roosie, as IMO it was not worth slabbing, but I do find it an attractive coin. Here are all 3 coins...</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m246/SkyMan58/Frankies/Franklin58D_N66_ObObv.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m246/SkyMan58/Frankies/Franklin58D_N66Star_ObRev.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m246/SkyMan58/Frankies/bc1958D_65FR3o677_zps60fc7e8a.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m246/SkyMan58/Frankies/bc1958D_65FR3r683th_zps408724e9.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m246/SkyMan58/1958/Roosevelt58DObvSm.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m246/SkyMan58/1958/Roosevelt58DRevSm.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
