WashQuartJesse Valued Member United States 173 Posts	Posted 11/05/2010 4:06 pm 66, Does the toning look better in hand? Report this Post to the Staff
DavidZerbato Pillar of the Community United States 1081 Posts	Posted 11/05/2010 4:32 pm I would guess MS, but don't they use appearance as a factor in grading for mint state coins? I would think that would lower the grade then. Report this Post to the Staff

I like the obverse, though - there is a dark green hue throughout most of the toning. Despite the toning, the coin is quite lustrous. Also, the coin is designated FBL. I couldn't get a good closeup shot of the lines through the slab and all the toning. I'll post the grade later today. Report this Post to the Staff

thecoinczar Valued Member United States 455 Posts	Posted 11/14/2010 6:54 pm I agree, that coin is probably the most hideous Franklin I've ever seen! Knowing PCGS and how wierd the grading services have become, I'm going to take a wild guess and say MS 64! Report this Post to the Staff
