bit the bullet: broke open a '56 proof set

wish me luck.

finally succombed to the call of a '56 Franklin Type 1: hoping for a decent gem-rating ( no CAM, etc to fall back on).

when I cut it out, I was initially surprised, pleasantly. I only gave it a cursory look; and didnt spend too much time photographing (didnt want to risk damage). With the Obverse, the truth is somewhere in between. No much in the way of distractions.
