Lookie what Lucille bought for 5 dollars!

Clean obverse with some tiny tiny hits. This coin has some very nice luster that is lost with the scan. The scan makes it look really drab.

The Reverse, super nice and strong Bell Lines...

If this five dollar score doesn't get a ms65fbl, then it'll be one of the nicest ms64's there is.

    Wonderful strike for a 1959. I can see the 3 little whisks of hair on Franklin in front of his ear. I'd give it a MS64 FBL.
