    James, what's the grade on your '59 Frankie? I like it a lot. 893applaud-thumb.gif

    Bob,

     

    It is not certified, but I grade it PF-66 with no CAM! The problem is, the lower truncation of Franklin's bust is brilliant and without mint frost, so although 95% of the obverse and reverse details are slam-dunk UCAM, that only little area would keep it out of UCAM territory. I have to reshoot the image, because the coin has nice, delicate colorful border toning on the obverse, but didn't show up due to poor angling of the camera.

     

    I paid a little extra, because it is just an awesome coin, giving all of the PF-66 UCAM look for a fraction of the price.
