    what price? it has an obo.

    i've had successful offers far under the BIN/obo price listed and have also accepted offers way below the BIN/obo price.

    ask for better images and if none can be provided tell the seller you are interested but think you may return the coin if it differs from the images too much.

    Don't buy it unless you are happy with the price.

    I just made an offer and from the looks of it he is not willing to deal too much.

    Well, I got a deal done Teddy! Thanks for the heads up on this one. Im hoping it looks nicer in hand. I might have to work some magic on it. The fields look really hazy.

    If she cleans up nice and the price is right that can be a wonderful coin. From the pics the frost looks a bit weak on the reverse. I can't really judge how good the mirrors are which can be another deal breaker on the designation. Any early date Franklin that is frosty is always a Pleasure to own image. Keep us posted!
