  No extra value that I can see. Check the 53s for full bell lines. If you have that
  then I'll change my mind.

  The 53 plain is pretty on the obverse but the back has toning and the bell lines aren't nearly as nice as the nicest coin (1959)
  
  To the refinery I guess.

  They are worth more than melt if they are the low mintage dates in close to unc shape---------BigE

  How about Walkers in Whitman albums in the same condition? More than melt?

  There are lots of folks who like Walkers, even if they're just common dates in common grades.

  When in doubt, don't.

  The walker set is missing three coins 1916S on Obv, 1921 and 1921D
  
  however, the 1917S is worn to the point the it's just readable as a 1917S

  The only Franklin bringing a modest premium (close to double melt) in average circulated condition is the 1955.
