    Thanks, Alan and Bobby. I have been looking for an 1893 AU 58 for so long,

    its not funny. Funny thing is that one did show up last week at another Heritage

    auction - and it was a decent 58 - and it closed for $431 !! Crazy money for an

    AU 58. I'm happy with this 64 - and although its really too nice for my set, I'll

    "rough it"... lol

     

    I've also been working on another SLQ collection - and the other day, I won

    a 1926-S in MS 64:

    Today, I was the lucky bidder for these two coins - and although neither of these three coins have a Full Head - they are well struck - and all display a fair amount of Head.

    I decided not to post the larger images - they're crazy big.

    Those are some beautifully toned Franklins.

     

    My collection of Franklins are Proofs which I have

    posted before. I had a couple of MS Franklin Halves

    in a 2x2 for ages and thought I'd get them holdered.

    Here are the NGC images - not great detail - but

    decent enough.

    Maybe I should have placed them into Library of Coins albums

    for the last 20 years to acquire the great toning I see posted here !!
