This is the most eye appealing (for the grade) Bust half I've ever owned
I sold this coin to another collector and had second thoughts about the sale;
I upgraded the date for him with my AU 55 duplicate and a few months later
bought the XF 40 back from him.
Its one of the nicest circulated cameos I've owned:

You're absolutely right, and not the first to mention this. Here's an Indian cent which lies well over that line, but I still like the look enough to put it into the type set (untila nicer and more original one comes along):

Here is a new one I recently came across, of a type rarely seen as a "Circ Cam" (and it was cheap).
I've never been able to read the words on the bell this easily before:

@dcarr... Now that is an unusual Franklin half.... For some reason, it is uncommon to find them in circ cam. Cheers, RickO
