There you go, pics as requested! Any comments on the black line near the 'T' in trust? Could it be a carbon streak, like I commonly see on Australian bronze coins?

I have to thank my Girlfriend for this amazing addition to my collection. The cameo is deeper in hand, I couldn't seem to do it justice with this little camera. Anyway, enjoy!

I always open sets, then put the coin in something other than a cardboard 2 X 2 like a coin-tain.

Are you going to send the Franklin in for grading? It's not as common to get cameos from the 60s back than from the 80s and forward. In those, you get all cameos every time!

Thanks guys, I may send it off to get graded but being on the south coast of England it would cost close to £70 (117 dollars)to get a single coin graded by PCGS, including postage and membership. :(

I will wait until I have quite a few coins to send off to make it viable.

If you are trying to make a profit this coin would not be worthwhile to send in to NGC or PCGS. From these photos I am very confident it would not make the cameo designation.
