Cruisinfusion Pillar of the Community United States 1531 Posts	Posted 04/06/2014 12:19 pm I have recently acquired these two coins. The Franklin appears to be in MS64-MS66 (Not an expert on the coins) and appears to have full bell lines. The large cent, on the other hand, is in good condition but I can't tell if it has been lightly cleaned in the past. Grading would be appreciated. Report this Post to the Staff

Cruisinfusion Pillar of the Community United States 1531 Posts	Posted 04/06/2014 2:49 pm Thanks for the replies. I think the large cent is cleaned because some of the copper color is showing through the black. Report this Post to the Staff

CoinsKelly Pillar of the Community United States 3453 Posts	Posted 04/06/2014 7:17 pm From your images I would put the Franklin at a minimum of MS64 FBL. I see little enough chatter to feel comfortable with that number and the bell lines are really great. I cannot give a grade on the large cent but would like to say very nice.

D0ubl3Eagle Pillar of the Community United States 5854 Posts	Posted 04/07/2014 12:23 am I can see the franklin getting a MS-64 but I am leaning towards no FBL because the lower set doesn't look complete but it is close. G details: cleaned on the large cent. Report this Post to the Staff
