Opinions on this 1956 Franklin Half

I could not grade a Franky if my life depended on it. This one seems nice but I would like some opinions on it.

So what do you think, and how about an approximate value?
Is it worth slabbing?
Thanks off to work.

That's a Boomer with Great Luster and a touch of color...
I give it a 64 with a shot at 65, hard to tell if it's FBL from the photo but it looks like it has a shot at that as well...
Very nice frankie, one's with this eye appeal are hard to come by...

<< <i>MS64...no fbl (shot 65)....great luster, average toning, good eye appeal. In my opinion not worth the grading fees as you can pick up these coins graded for $30 bucks all day long. >>
That is what I figured.
I have a roll of them, in a tube. This was the top piece.
What do you think a roll like this is worth?
This is the only one with color.
Maybe I will stick it in my 7070.

Looks like rolls in tubes are trading for around $275 on Ebay so that could be a good starting point if the rest of the coins are untoned

Hoard the keys.
64, too much junk of Ben's head and face.

<< <i>It also has some marks in the field left of the head included with the rubbing on the head. I say MS 63 because of the number of marks. Sweet looking coin though! >>
This is the most accurate observation that I've seen so far. Look at the hair next to the temple. Those scuffs look pretty deep to me, and might actually make the grade more like 62.
