    I have to admit, that pretty toning lessens the blow of the ugliness of that series!imageimage

    Alright....You "Toners" have finally done it to me. I've broken down and bought a couple of Butt Ugly Frankies just to see what all the hype is. I hope they look better when they get here!image

    It's impossible to say for sure from the photographs but there are enough hints of color and texture in the pictures that I think you're going to be happy when you get them. Keep us in the loop.

    Claus, in my experience Toned mint state Frankies are very hard to photo or scan, I'll betcha that those 2 Frankies will look alot better in person. I have a very nice toned 49s ms66fbl, but when I scan it it looks terrible.....

    The coin belonged to PEPPERDOODLES, remember? Lucy, did he give you the coin for being the only one willing to be nice to him??
