Franklin type 1, 2

NewParadigm

Can anybody tell me what is/are the unique attributes of a Franklin 1956 proof type 1 and 2? Pics?

Thanks

MadMarty

look at a proof 55 Frankie, the eagle on the reverse, that is a type 1. Now look at the eagle on a 57 that is a Type 2


Only because I don't have pics here at work

Superb information on determining the Type 1 v. Type 2. Other than internet exploring, and real-world pricing guidelines???

Why should we look? Is there a premium for one over the other??

Rare?

Yes the type 1 is the scarcer of the two and cams and dcams are worth nice premiums.
