Full Bell Lines

I have several great looking Franklin rolls.I could use some help with "full bell lines". I think Full Band Mercs are easy compared to bell lines on Franklins.

    Pcgs The lower sets of bell lines are complete (FBL). Very slight disturbance of several lines is acceptable.

    As Placid said, the bottom row of Lines has to be complete without any interruptions from one side of the Bell to the other. Obviously, the Crack in the Liberty Bell doesn't count as a interruption.

    this is a FBL PCGs coin. Notice the hit on the lines to the right of the Crack. This does not hurt the designation.

    I think meet all of LucyBop's criteria, hopefully PCGS's too.
    Don't feel alone, it's a first for me submitting Franklins as well.
