halfabustisbetter Pillar of the Community United States 1984 Posts	Posted 11/22/2008 10:01 am If that look on the bottom of the bell (bell-bottom?) is simply a trick of the light or a weaker than average strike then MS-64. Report this Post to the Staff
Metalman Pillar of the Community United States 7123 Posts	Posted 11/22/2008 10:21 am Bio Great job with the picture , capturing luster is tricky and very difficult but you nailed it with this photo . The coin should grade a solid 64, the bell weakness is a norm for this coin , its opposite the obverse high point and indicates a little less than full strike . Very pretty Franklin none the less !

biokemist6 Bedrock of the Community United States 12437 Posts	Posted 11/26/2008 12:12 am I graded this one MS65, in-hand the fields are almost flawless which is unusual for the early S mint Franklins. The only marks of note are a small nick on the shoulder and then a small bag mark by the mint mark and another at the bell lines. The bell lines are a little more pronounced in-hand but nowhere near full. This thing is just dripping with luster Report this Post to the Staff
