Other than the 1949-S, 1951-S, 1954-S, and 1959, are there any other Franklins have been certified prooflike by NGC (since PCGS doesn't certify them). I thought about trying to collect them all since I have the 1949-s until I learned that the 51-S, and 54-S only have 1 example each, so that makes it essentially unachievable.

Thanks.

Since you asked. And no, those are not scratches, they are die polishing lines.

I was unable to find any records of PL Franklins besides the 49S and the 59.
Maybe the site hasn't updated the 51S and 54S.
It could also be that the coins are semi PL and got a star or a plus.

Great example! The Franklin half has always been one of my favorite designs overall. I think I have one PL in my collection - I'll try to dig it out this week and post some pix.
