I've had this tucked away in a book. Just wondered if this would grade in the MS mid range. My camera did ok even though in hand it shows more luster and somewhat brighter. It's not a FBL but otherwise it looks pretty good to me. Hope my pics do it justice?

It needs to grade MS67 or higher to justify all costs involved to get slabbed. I do not think it will grade that high.http://www.numismedia.com/rarecoinp...proof=&plus=

MS64+ but just misses 65 I suppose. Not FBL but a very attractive example.
Rest in Peace

I agree to 64 and also if you attribute FBL like I do ,the 3 upper lines not the bottom ones , that coin is darn close to FBL's .

Appreciate everyone's outlook on this coin.
Love my Franky's but it's time to let this one go possibly the ebay route.
