RealtorInWi Valued Member United States 94 Posts	Posted 01/17/2006 5:26 pm Just curious what ya'll have to say about this Franklin I picked up... I won't post what it was actually graded by one of these infamous fly-by-nighters until I see a few responses.. and unfortunately the 'Insert an Image File' section is not working...

Mike Rest in Peace United States 2884 Posts	Posted 01/17/2006 5:35 pm RealtorInWi, Hello! What problem are you running into attaching an image? I tried it and it seems to be working now. Is it giving you an error message? Sometimes if the file is to large (above 80kb or so?) it will not load. Mike Report this Post to the Staff
RealtorInWi Valued Member United States 94 Posts	Posted 01/17/2006 5:38 pm The image sizes were sized down (below 80k), yet every time I tried using it, I'd get html code in the window.. Maybe it's Mozilla, or one of my JS blockers. Either way, I've already u/led to my site, I'll just link from here... https://www.bensellswisconsin.com/62rev.jpg https://www.bensellswisconsin.com/62obv.jpg Hopefully, these will work (they're much bigger than 80k)--better viewing.

Susanlynn9 Forum Mom United States 5877 Posts	Posted 01/17/2006 9:06 pm Looks like MS63 to me. If it was graded by one of the fly-by-nights, I'd say they put MS68 on the holder, possibly with FBL, though I don't think this coin has full bell lines. Report this Post to the Staff
Metalman Pillar of the Community United States 7123 Posts	Posted 01/17/2006 10:44 pm Im going to go MS-64 on the coin,, I think some of the reflections are on the slab, The coin wont make FBL's, the reverse in the second set of photos looks very weak ! I figure they graded this coin as an MS-67 I also have changed this due to the second set of pics, I dont think even a less than noble grading company would give it the FBL designation. But I will stand by my opinion on grade. Rick Edited by Metalman 01/18/2006 12:06 am Report this Post to the Staff
RealtorInWi Valued Member United States 94 Posts	Posted 01/17/2006 11:41 pm I've uploaded two new photos, taken without so much glare/reflection... They're quite a bit larger, too. Same links, different pics. https://www.bensellswisconsin.com/62rev.jpg https://www.bensellswisconsin.com/62obv.jpg Report this Post to the Staff
Mike Rest in Peace United States 2884 Posts	Posted 01/18/2006 12:47 am Hi, cute Kitty! I would say MS63,64 if the graders are in a good mood! Mike Report this Post to the Staff
Susanlynn9 Forum Mom United States 5877 Posts	Posted 01/18/2006 09:38 am Based on the new pics, I'd like to change my grade to MS64. Good catch, Rick, on the glare problem in the original pics. Still don't see full bell lines though. Report this Post to the Staff
U.S.M.C New Member 20 Posts	Posted 01/22/2006 10:37 pm Nice coin, ms66? Looks like the reverse it a little weakly struck. Edited by U.S.M.C 01/22/2006 10:39 pm Report this Post to the Staff
