[QUOTE="treylxapi47, post: 2067589, member: 41863"]I like the Bugs Bunny Franklins and the 55 is a good coin in my general opinion. I look at it like this, mainly because this was my experience and seems likely to happen again. When I was first learning about 'real' coins and not just stacking silver, I sought out a newbie set that would be easy to complete, short series, obtainable, old and yet still modern, very affordable, silver, and something with a little heft to it. Franklins were my natural choice. Well it only takes a cursory glance at franklins to figure out that you are gonna be missing that 55 Bugs Bunny as they turn up quite a bit in searches. It's an easy coin to obtain, but it was a door buster for me and varieties (without having to break the bank on non-normal coins like 3-legged and 55 DDOs). You can easily cherry pick this coin, and it introduces you to the other BBs in the series. It was a great learning tool for me, I now own 4 or 5 and always on the lookout for more. PLUS the other years Bugs Bunny clashes that I definitely didn't know existed until after I owned my first BB[/QUOTE]
