Well, I did it!
Purchased the coin. Instead of trying to bargain on the price, I asked him if he would include the individual grading costs.
Since the coin is in a graded set holder, I would have had him break the half out and I would have it individually slabbed. Instead, he's going to take care of sending it all in to pcgs. It's a good deal to me!
Anyway, I hope the coin comes back with the same pr65 cameo grade, but the holder is just protection to me. Either way, I'm very happy with this coin and I can't wait to have it in hand. Will share pictures when she gets home!
Thanks to everyone for the comments and feedback. Very helpful.
Gem cameo franklins are quickly becoming a sort of obsession for me. The Franklin half is hands down my favorite series.
