I'm impressed with previous 4 posters ability to tell if they're polished. The Franklin looks ok and the Merc looks cleaned to me imo. Like you say, I'd take them for melt all day long.

I think the franklin is fine. The merc looks dipped. Who cares if you got them for melt. I would have bought them. But what do I really know lol

Looks like it's been rubbed a bit. Doesn't look like it had a buffer or polishing compound taken to it.

I don't think so. To much dirt inside the letters and numbers. If ever cleaned it was done a long time ago. Look around the bell and note the dirt. Same with some of the lettering. Just to much dirt. As I said if ever cleaned at all, a long time ago. Now the Merc. YES for real, cleaned good.

I think it looks like an excellent hole filler for now and when you get your "prime example" it will be a great start on your "B" set of Franklin's.

I'll buy silver @ melt until my bank account is converted into silver in my safe. Well done.
