It's essential to have it in the title. * Here are 2 reverse of a 1953s 50c would you give for one of them a fbl?

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 73654 Posts	Posted 08/10/2025 9:24 pm Not an expert on this subject, but I'll say no FBL. The bell seems to be weakly struck from a weak strike. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff

shayez Valued Member Israel 60 Posts	Posted 08/11/2025 07:10 am In my opinion the bell lines looks very similar, but on 1 coin pcgs gave a fbl and on the second coin didn't give a fbl. Which coin do you think pcgs gave a fbl? And can you point out the difference why the other coin is not getting a fbl, Should I send it in for review and try to get a fbl on the second coin?

Freespeech57 Pillar of the Community United States 616 Posts	Posted 08/11/2025 3:29 pm If one is FBL, then it would be the first one. The second has a "rim ding" through the lines on the bell on the right side and the lines on the left are not distinct or separated well. Report this Post to the Staff
