    Toned proofs from the mid-50's are tough to find. Awesome.

    I listen to your voice like it was music, [ y o u ' r e ] the song I want to know.

    I'd give you the world, just because...

    Speak to me of loved ones, favorite places and things, loves lost and gained, tears shed for joy and sorrow, of when I see the sparkle in your eye ...
    and the blackness when the dream dies, of lovers, fools, adventurers and kings while I sip my wine and contemplate the Chi.

    The only thing better than a CAMDCAM proof Frankie or early silver proof or SMS Kennedy is a toned version of the same coin.

    Your 1956 is DDG (drop dead gorgeous). You should place it in as the first coin in your newest collection................, a set of toned CAM/DCAM proof Franklins from 1950-1963. It only might take you twenty years to complete (buy slabbed examples of all 13 remaining coins [15 if you include the 1965 Type 1 and the 1961 DDR] in CAM/DCAM, crack them out of the plastic and place them intoa Whitman holder or paper envelope for twenty years, take them out ahd have them reslabbed).
