  • I have pulled several 1958's out of original mint sets with that exact same color reverse.....for me there is zero doubt as to the originality of the toning on that one Sy image

    Pat,
    I think I saw that coin. Did the dealer have an under $500 case? He had quite a few wow coins and was a pleasure to visit with.

    I believe $500 is way, way to much for this coin. But I know that number is just speculation, and I think the most I would pay would be $100-200, just depending on the "in hand look" image

    That coin is just about as captivating as a coin can be.

    Yes. The case next to this one had some of the most eye catching, eye candy Morgans I've ever laid eyes on.

    TDN: High compliment, indeed. Thank you.

    Sorry I just don't believe this coin is a $500 Franklin. Of course I'm basing this off an image and not the coin in hand, but here's a '56 Franklin I use to own that I purchased in a double mint set for around $200. It looks similar to the OPs coin.

    The coins worth whatever "you" wanna pay for it.
