Great day at the coin store.

I'll start off by saying, I wish I had pictures, but I don't .
I went to my local coin store today trying to get a BU 1950P Franklin Half that I liked the looks of, so after walking in and getting the coin, I looked closely at the bell and closely by Ben's ears, it all looked great, the one thing I didn't look at... the mint mark. It was a 1950D. After calling the store up and asking if I could get the 50P that I asked for, they said it was fine so I went in and the first coin he brought out got me excited, ALL around the rim of the coin, was blue fading to red and orange. And it wasn't just a thin line around the rim either. He asked me "is this one ok" and I really had to hold back my anxiousness to get the coin in hand, I replied with yes, and immediatly when I got home it went into my Franklin book, where it sticks out like a sore thumb.
For those of you who care, it was a great day .
