Ok, then let me share these as well. Got these a few months back for a great deal -- not only did I pay rough spot, but I got some used airtites for each one.

I love the Franklin's and have a complete set that varies from VG+ to Proof. I started collecting them when I was 7 years old (in 1967 when they were still fairly common in circulation). My interest was sparked by curiosity... it perplexed me why the Quaker Oats guy was on a coin. ")

Muddler, that's a beautiful proof Ben! Congratulations on a great addition.

I do actually have a few changes/additions/upgrades etc to share.

I will post an update as soon as I can get some photos together.

Here is the freshest coin I've got; I cherried this out of an original set, cut it out, then had it dipped and sent in.

I'll break out the macro setup and take some good pics of it later.

FTB, what did you dip it in to preserve it for the ride to the slabbing?
