Just wanted to share 2006 Ben Franklin. I was going to put it in my 7070 but I am liking it so much I think that I am just going leave it in its commemorative holder(for now). The coin looks better than the photos; I have a hard time shooting through plastic. Only 58,000 made and its cheaper than the proof?!

Very nice. I got both the Franklin commems - the Scientist and the Founding Father. I like 'em both about the same.

Now you will have to get another commemorative for your 7070, then another, and another. You have so many coins to choose from with both BU and proof options.

Ben Franklin--scientist, statesman, and apparently...body-builder.
Cool coin!

I like it - looks clean - I'd leave it in the holder as well

It is a very clean coin! I may even send it in for grading sometime. I am thinking may I will go with a Lewis & Clark for the 7070! I like their story. And of course I will need a Founding Father Ben to go with this one.
