The $2.7 Million Dollar Franklin Roll! With picture!

Dollar tube, lasagna like layers of FBL 1958's interlayered with fast food napkins.

I will cash out in about 6 years! B)

    If it takes 6 years is that considered AT or NT?

    haha that would be cool to see some crazy colors in 6 years. I am not one to pay for color. I know there is a huge market. I prefer my coins blast white.

    Yes, put it on a sunny window sill and you will cut the time to 2-3 years.

    Collector and dealer in obsolete currency. Always buying all obsolete bank notes and scrip.

    A Blue Whiteman will do the same after a while (sometimes) a long while

    If any of those are TYPE 2 (Proof Die Reverse) MS65 FBL coins you already made lots of money. Only two are known in MS65 FBL. I hope some of them are T2's. In six years you will be rich! :D

    dump them in a ziplock with a sliced hardboiled egg. Will change colour much faster.

    If they come out with tarnish, you can always dip 'em :D

    Just make sure you have this thread deleted before you submit them.

    The prime ingredient for NT is present - INTENT. Though I am sure the results will command premiums far beyond your investment. Cheers, RickO

    So that's how the pros do it.

    The pardon is for tyrants. They like to declare pardons on holidays, such as the birthday of the dictator, or Christ, or the Revolution. Dictators should be encouraged to keep it up. And we should be encouraged to remember that the promiscuous dispensation of clemency is not a sign of political liberality. It is instead one of those valuable, identifying marks of tyranny.

    Harry Bass used cigar smoke in his tubes. So did Martin Paul., whose $40K stash of original Cuban cigars was persistently publicly self-congratulated. Working from his regular suite at NY's Gorham Hotel a couple of blocks from Stacks, Martin once left a Pan-Pac Octagonal sit outside his window to "air out" overnight before a trip to NGC. He checked out of the hotel and didn't find the coin was missing until he handed in his paperwork in Parsippany later that day. It was gone when hotel security checked the suite later that day. We're talking $50K "up in smoke".

    After the Bass sales resulted in so many significant "no-grades" on "residue" and "AS", perceptions, attitudes and technologies shifted somewhat in the sausage factories and among their symbiotes. :* If you are not confused, you're not paying attention :*

    I remember the Bass 1860 $10 PCGS MS64. Best of the date I've ever seen. Open and shut smoked by Bass, but in a way which had and has only the most nominal compromise of its "originality". @specialist and I futilely fought to about $70K a few years ago in a Stacks sale, non-CAC having nothing to do with actual chemical or physical impairment of surfaces.

    Cannabis smoke is most highly effective on silver and gold coins in the 43-66 range. Harry and his brothers invented Vail, CO. Others have carried the concept of the Rocky Mountain High to yet another altitudinal apogee.

    Be sure to unintentionally store your tubes near an outside wall subjected to lots of weather and temperature variations.
