<< <i>This is my only Franklin that I consider Mint set toned,although I do not know that for sure.
That is a nice 56. Looks like it could be an album toner.
I believe these are from a 47 mint set:

Would you like to sell that 57 and 56 set?
Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......
These are some fun double mint set toners.

Wonderful coins everyone. Seems I can never find sets like this.
Not trying to take this great thread OT but I have an observation and a question.
With every set that has been pictured, except the one above, at least one or more of the coins in the cards are oriented wrong. Why is this?
When I see this it tells me that the coins have been popped and put back, for some reason, with the wrong orientation and at worst makes me wonder if the coins may have been switched or messed with at some time in the past and haphazardly replaced. When coins are popped out why are they not put back the way they came from the Mint?
Just wondering . . .

1947-P & D; 1948-D; 1949-P & S; 1950-D & S; and 1952-S.
Any help locating any of these OBW rolls would be gratefully appreciated!

halfhunter,
I've opened many "unopened" double mint sets and you'll always find the coins on different angles in the boards. The mint employees were not to concerned with how they placed coins in the boards. However, I'd say that most opened sets would have had the coins taken out and put back in at one time or another. Flip the board over and see if the paper is indented. If not than it's possible they have not been popped out.
By the way, the set you referenced above was once owned by me. I placed the coins in the boards that way in order to photograph the set.

DAYUM, PP, that '53 is KILLER!!!
Tiny, very sweet '58-D Washie! If you ever want to sell it, please let me know.
Ehhh, as to best, that's a very subjective definition. Here's one I think highly of...

Sy that is one incredible 52-s you got there. Solid MS-67 coin imo and by far the nicest ive seen. Did you pull that yourself from a mint set?

Nope, it was already slabbed MS67. I did send it back for a designation review and it did get a star.
I heard through the grapevine that someone saw the card it came out of, and the rest of the S mint coins were the same sort of toning.

until i accepted the fact I had not any money .........
I also had the lone PCGS MS67 52-S in my home on approval when it was in a NGC 67 holder ;
i chickened out on that one too ..........
you got to have guts to buy MS 67 Franklins - and a wad of money
I had neither

On the silver coins imo it is rather easy to tell what mint set toning looks like so i doubt any would get Bagged.
