wheatchaser140 Pillar of the Community United States 2368 Posts	Posted 07/11/2014 1:29 pm Paid $15, grade opinions? Also, there is a dent in front of Franklin's ear on the obverse. Would that damage bring this down to a details grade? Thanks. Report this Post to the Staff

muddler Pillar of the Community United States 7193 Posts	Posted 07/11/2014 3:35 pm Looks to me as an MS 63 coin. the bag mark by the ear should not details the coin but it is really not worth sending into a TPG. Enjoy Ben in all his glory as he is. Report this Post to the Staff

mcstone Valued Member United Kingdom 179 Posts	Posted 07/11/2014 6:23 pm That is a lovely coin, I think MS-63 too, although without the spots one the reverse it may even be a 64 in my opinion. Report this Post to the Staff

jimbucks Pillar of the Community United States 4692 Posts	Posted 07/26/2014 3:48 pm You might try some acetone to get the haze off of the reverse. Report this Post to the Staff

They have a complete BU Franklin album I can pick from. Like I said, all dates, some are blast white, others are spectacularly toned, some are in between. Great prices there too! So far I have spent $60 on Franklin half dollars there, everything I've bought Redbooks conservatively at around $100 total, so 40% off.
