[QUOTE="Catbert, post: 455212, member: 12718"]Some really beautiful coins in this thread. Leadfoot, someday I'll learn how to take pictures 1/2 as well as you do........someday. I used to own lots of proof sets, but sold them all. Here is my only proof, a Frankie - 1959 is my birth year. It is 1 of 5 that have received the NGC * designation at this grade: [IMG]http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh297/IndianaCatbert/1959%20Cameo%20Franklin/LouisSoccerFranklinHalf8-08029.jpg[/IMG] The next pics were taken using an incandescent lamp and, while the pics aren't the best, I kind of like the warm glow effect. The obverse pic appears to have a scratch in front of Ben's forehead and some grainyness in the fields, but it ain't so! Must be reflections off of the holder.
