RichUrich Valued Member United States 398 Posts	Posted 11/14/2015 6:37 pm The obverse has no lustre, the reverse has little lustre. These images are real good representations of this coin. I don't think you will believe what it was graded by PCGS. Report this Post to the Staff
gymcoachdon Pillar of the Community United States 717 Posts	Posted 11/14/2015 8:28 pm I would say MS63 because of the lack of luster on the obverse, but it is really clean for a Franklin. Most are very baggy, and this one only has a few hits. Maybe there is some luster under the obverse toning? The hit on the left upper bell lines should preclude FBL designation, but I wouldn't be surpried with a 64/65 if there is luster under that toning. Report this Post to the Staff

mailman28 Valued Member United States 416 Posts	Posted 11/14/2015 9:55 pm I'll say they called it MS-66 though I wouldn't pay anywhere near that money, very clean in these pics but obverse surface is just dead Report this Post to the Staff

RichUrich Valued Member United States 398 Posts	Posted 11/15/2015 5:15 pm Tell me how this coin received a grade of MS-65... Report this Post to the Staff
fromms2244 Valued Member United States 461 Posts	Posted 11/15/2015 7:56 pm It is an above average strike for year and mm. Toning is hiding luster. Edited by fromms2244 11/15/2015 7:57 pm Report this Post to the Staff
