Where's Ben???

I don't know if maybe I'm getting a little old but - Can Anyone See Ben Franklin's Face on This Coin???

Like I said - maybe I'm getting old! LOL

  • Yikes! I don't think the toning on that one "is from the light source" as the explanation says. Rick oughtta tailor his descriptions a little better on these.

    Edited to add: this coin is MS, so I guess the disclaimer regarding proof coins doesn't apply. Still, it's a little confusing.

  • Wow, that toning does a good job hiding his face.


    For some life lasts a short while, but the memories it holds last forever.

    In memory of BL, SM, and KG. 16 and forever young, rest in peace.
