    Not really looking for much these days but if I were, it might be a toner. :smile:

    Thanks guys... Glad you enjoyed it...
    Lasvegasteddy that was what caught my eye... As i`m not a Frankie specialist
    I have seen on here quite a few 58-D`s different members had posted stating
    they were from mint sets and the colors looked like typical mint set to me...
    Keyman and Rick thank you! I always shoot for a similar look for my silver... image

    That is a beautiful example that is original & PQ, even for the lofty grade, and certainly meets the standards of your unique, amazing set.

    Pretty sure I remember when this coin came on the market about 10 years ago, because I remember that toning around the date as well. It's mint set companion was with it, also a 66FBL at the time. It had the same type of toning around the date, only the inside of the 8 had deeper blue/green color than the surrounding area. I think a pic of that coin has been on these boards as well at some point past.
    Some refer to overgraded slabs as Coffins. I like to think of them as Happy Coins.
