Bonedigger Pillar of the Community United States 1267 Posts	Posted 12/05/2007 4:35 pm First off, I love 'Cigar Boxes' and the gradual toning they sometimes impart onto the raw coins I keep in them...Here are a couple of nice looking 1957s. What are your thoughts? Take Care Ben Edited by Bonedigger 12/05/2007 4:36 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Bonedigger Pillar of the Community United States 1267 Posts	Posted 12/05/2007 5:59 pm Cedar? might be... Sounds like wood when I thump it, The box is an older M&O one, but the paper covers the hard portions, sides lid & bottom. Edited by Bonedigger 12/05/2007 6:00 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Mike Rest in Peace United States 2884 Posts	Posted 12/05/2007 9:18 pm Great looking Franklin's. I must say it's the first time I heard the term "Cigar box Franklin's". I assume it is a toning method. Looks like it works very well. Mike Report this Post to the Staff
