Here are the 1955 and 1956 Franklins for the toner Dansco set. Both years are relatively easy to find decent toning on, courtesy of the mint sets of the era. As a matter of fact, I pulled the 1956 from a mint set. The 1955 was imaged by Bob Campbell, and the 1956 was imaged by Shane Canup. I think they both did excellent jobs.

I especially like the blue one!

MS66 taste on an MS63 budget.

I also really like the blue color on the 56. Nice additions.

It's interesting how that shade of blue, and a bit deeper shade, too, is so common on 1956 US Mint Set silver coins. Nice pieces.
