"W" Stickers on Franklin Halves

I went to the Summer F.U.N show in Orlando and a dealer had a case full of very nice Franklin Halves. They had little round light blue "W' stickers on them kind of like CAC's green bean. I'd never seen them before so I asked the dealer and he told me who stickered them. I don't recall the name. The sticker was to represent the coin as pure white. Anyone have any more information on this?

Yes, I have seen those before as well, along with others including the Eye Appeal Seal, Rick Snow's Eagle Eye, and one that people refer to as a "green bean".
Nothing is as expensive as free money.

It used to be Bob Paul & co, I don't know today, as their site is broken.

What happens if the coin turns in the holder?
You could make the same argument for the TPG or any of the other stickering parties. Another good use case for TrueViews, since the photo is a record of how the coin appeared while it was in the TPG’s possession.

Thanks for the link. It worked for me and provided the information I needed. I'd just saw those sticker for the first time this year.
I don’t really care about the stickers. I either like the coin or I don’t. Frankly I don’t want somebody’s garbage or racket stuff on my slabs.
If the coin goes bad in the holder the sticker makes the buyer look like El Stupido.
Then you'll get a WW sticker.
