My $10.00 Frankie

I picked this up for about $10.00 at a small shop near me.

The reverse is just as nice. The reflected stuff in the fields is my camera from about 4 inches away.

  • Is that full cameo?

  • Very nice. Does the cameo look as good in person?

    Nice. I actually moved my finger up and down in front of my monitor trying to test the mirror effect of the coin. imageimage

    Yeah, the cameo is pretty close to what it appears........I think it has an outside shot at DCAM, but I expect a CAM. Maybe in the 66-67 range. If photoisland would co-operate, I'd put a pic of the reverse up.

    From that angle I,d swear it was a DCAM Frankie.

    Its hard to say... It seems to have the frost and mirrors, but I cant say fom this image. I can say its 10 dollars well spent.

    Some very nice camera work! That coin may very well go DCAM. Check for frost breaks in the curls and where the hair meets his shoulder. I hope you will add a pic of the reverse. Does the coin need a little dippy-doo out in front of Franklin's nose and mouth? A very nice find for $10!
