and yet polished. She was laminated in (plastic-plexiglass) in a set of quarter dollar 1958D, fife cents1958D, one cents 1958D and one dime. All polished.Sory for emotions. Thank you for the suggestion.

Yep, someone polished it. Still worth silver, though.
Rest in Peace

Quick question,for it to be so highly polished wouldn't there be a lot of detail lost?

For Franklin half dollars, there is a design detail that differentiates proof vs. business strike(circulating coinage) on post-1955 coins. On the reverse of a business strike, the eagle will have a low relief and four indistinct feathers on each wing. Proof strikes will have a high relief eagle with three distinct feathers.
