Lucy and the 58d Frankie, Gems, GemS, Gems!

The obverse:

Another Gem which again, looks better in person. A few niks can be seen, some in the top of Frankies head. But again, this GEM has some clean fields. On the 58 the master dies were badly worn, so this is why the detail in the hair is lacking, this is not due to rub. I have this as a ms66.

A Very clean Reverse, that I also believe to be a 6, not as much detail but again this is due to the quality of the master dies. This one isn't a FBL coin, but I bought it for six dollars.....

Overall grade, MS66.

    Lucy, toned coins are very tough to image on a scanner. Try to prop the coin up on one end and it will show it better. Unless of coarse you are already doing this.

    I'll have to try that, I simply just laid the coin down in the scanner.....
