Franklin Bells

Lately I've been looking more and more at Frankies... What do you think of their future? I think they are under appreciated, although I think the same about Peace dollars.

    I really like Franklin halves. I'm not entirely sure why, but I do. I guess I've always admired Ben....plus they didnt make them for a long time, which is another interesting feature to me.

    Everything I write is my opinion.

    Looking for alot of crap.

    Frankies are like dollar stocks. They're cheap, and that in itself says "stay away". image

    If you like them, collect them. Don't think you'll get rich anytime soon. You better learn a lot about the series before you spend a dime on them.

    there has been some speculation that the new Franklin Commem will jump start the series.

    I collect them for reasons listed above- Admired the man, short series, no real stoppers ( except for condition rareites -FBL), and the Cameo proofs look real nice.

    Many would call them moder crap, but I think they are a cool link/ transition coin, the last of the all silver coins.

    However, when the trades start calling them hot, it is time to bail.

    does the truth become error because nobody will see it. -Mohandas K. Gandhi (1869-1948)
