I picked up some more Franklins for my set and am hoping you can help me grade them and give me an idea of value to see if I did okay.

MS62 too many scuff marks for a 64, though it does have great luster and that may knock it up a point.

I was going to say ms 64 fbl - and then I saw the answer...

That would be a typical amount of scuff for a ms 64 - based on what I've seen from pcgs. If there are scuffs/dings in the field & the face - then you are usually looking at a 63.

Wow I was off on this Franklin! I guess this is one that I would need in hand to grade, no way I would pay above common unc money based on these photographs.

I hope you didn't pay 64FBL money for this. It could be the picture, but I would not call this an FBL. I'm certainly not an expert and it's just my opinion.
