Just saw this one..have always wanted a cheap toned proof.

I love the electric blues on these proofs.

Sorry I cant link the picture but heres the auction.

Opinions?

    I like those colors a lot on a Frankie. If you picked this one up, can you post some nice pics here when you have the coin in hand?
    Some coins are just plain "Interesting"

    I like that one- it must be hairlined like crazy, but the toning is pretty cool......

    on my screen the dark toning looks black.
    the patina is really thick around the rims.
    bet it looks lots better in hand

    That's a pretty old ANACS slab. It might grade higher now. ANACS didn't used to give coins much credit for attractive toning.

    I hope you like it.
    You are better than I am on this as I would have seen all the BIG text and long-windedness in the seller's auction and I doubt I would have made it down far enough to see the pics.....I steer clear of sellers who have auctions like that one...

    But, please do post pics when you get it inhand!

    I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment

    I think that obverse color is going to be a knockout with nice blues and red.....can't tell about the reverse but it could be just as nice......good purchase in my opinion image
