<< <i>Is it accurately graded? High end? Low end? >>



I think it holds up in the 65 holder , mid to low end.

The tone is not memorable and it's the kind of coin that gets tucked away and forgotten about .

Wow! What would cause that type of toning? I have never seen anything like it. Cool coin! >>



I would say thats classic Government issue Mint Set tone

<< <i>What an ugly piece of low end garbage. >>



I would be happy to personally show it to you at the next show you attend

I think it's mint set toning like Paul said. I really like this one but I could also see how others may not. Picked it up cheap on Ebay a couple years ago.

I've always been of the opinion that beauty is in the eye of person holding the coin. I love those toned Franklins. I love those blast white Franklins. Every coin sings it's own song and if you can appreciate it for what it is then you'll enjoy the coin a lot more.

<< <i>well it's not ugly ..........but it's a prime example of me shooting off my mouth about it b4 I even got it ,

doing so having only seen the pictures ..........

I will agree with those that did not think it was desirable and will chalk up another lesson learned >>





Say it ain't so PP. YOU shooting your mouth off??? What is the world coming to???

Ah yes, learning another lesson. I learned one this summer at the ANA. Ya' know, it's interesting how us old dogs can still learn new tricks... It must be the beatings.
