I had a thread about my newest collection so I essentially did a cut and paste on why I selected it. I started to look into Franklins. They are a in a relatively short series, so assembling a collection won't be too difficult. There were millions minted so the availability for decent grades is not out of control. I think it's an attractive coin. I have strong ties to Philly. Ben's my son's name and I've always been a fan of Franklin as a statesman and inventor. And they have just as much silver content as other pre 1965 halves.
