This is probably the best Franklin I have, and I've wondered if it's worth sending in for grading, that's something I've never done. These are the best photos I could take of it, and have posted more than two shots because I don't have the perfection shooting these that I see in the forum.

to CCF. Your coin is a Denver mint and should be in your title.As a general rule: a coin needs a retail value after grading of at least $150 to justify all costs involved in having it slabbed. Is you coin in that price range? Here is a link on grading https://www.PCGS.com/photograde here is a link on values http://numismedia.com/fmv/fmv.shtml

Thank you John, from now on I'll include mint marks in my titles. I've been to that site before I posted the pics and found it looked impossibly high, like an MS 66 or 67. I don't think my photo skills do it justice though.

Nice half. MS66+ for me. Not worth submitting for slabbing--my opinion.

I'd say MS-64, very close to MS-65. It is not a full bell lines example.
