Hello everyone I purchased a 1959 mint set a few weeks ago and found this amazing 59 d half as well as a 59p black beauty I submitted to the official BB thread, anyway submitting this one for grading, I be6 this example would qualify for FBL and a pretty high grade , it is still in the original cello I hope that is ok, thank you in advance for your insight   |

The plastic is obscuring too much of the coin's surfaces for me to get a good feel.  to the CCF! Edited by Coinfrog

I think it is close to FBL but might fall short at a TPG becuase of the softness of the lines on the left next to the crack on the upper set of lines. |

Nice coin! Just a question. Is that damage on the coin through the cellophane @ 12 O'clock in the rev?

Can't really see if the bottom bell line is complete. Can you tilt the coin and take a pic?

The cello is just crinkled alittle at 12 on the rev, I agree that the lines do look alittle soft but when compared to high Ms examples on PCGS the lines Look deeper that an ms67FBL I have included a rev screenshot of that coin for comparison, I looked through many years and it looks like for the 59d they are alittle more lenient on the lines or are the pictures messing with my eyes?   |

Looks like weak lines around the crack.
