I have this franklin it looks to have a double date also a few letters and is this a FBL? with a die error? any help is appreciated, thanks,MoJo

Interesting that what appears as doubling isn't throughout but only in certain area.

BTW, better check your glasses (or get some)!

You can see "double" but entirely miss the date?

Your 57 is a 58.

BTW, IMHO the Franky appears to be MS 63ish w FBL even with the crack

being right on the bell lines. That being said, I don't believe the crack is anything

of major concern, other than what it is! A die crack. Dbling ... Hmmmm - dunno!

Looks like a fairly normal/ regular CH BU 58-D FBL to me.

Sell it on the bay and save up for a 65 FBL.

Very interesting indeed. It appears that it was struck just a bit off center possibly creating that doubling in the date area.
