1958 Franklin Half (toner) - GTG (ICG Holder)

oih82w8oih82w8 Posts: 12,303 ✭✭✭✭✭

I normally don't purchase outside the Top III Grading holders, and I don't remember the circumstances that this wound up in my ebay cart, but here it is. I am not going to cross this one over, it's not worth the fees. I wanted to see what the forum members had to say about him in comparison to ICG

Thank you for your interest and comments!

    No interest on this one huh? I guess that I will potentially give it away on another forum site then.

    chatter on the cheek, and gash on eyebrow and forehead make this a 65 MAX.... may be a 64 on an off day!

    What we've got here is failure to communicate.....

    MS 63 IMO. Hacked up pretty good.

    Color is only neutral.

    MS65
    That's my WAG!

    Need the following OBW rolls to complete my 46-64 Roosevelt roll set:
    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!

    63 no FBL. The cheek and bell are pretty banged up.

    Around MS64; they tend to be a little generous if the coin is original and lustrous. I'm not sure how that jives with the ANA standards.

    Is ICG still in business? No idea how they grade it. Mine is a 64.

    Some refer to overgraded slabs as Coffins. I like to think of them as Happy Coins.
