Post a cameo Franklin or Kennedy.

Ok, I gotta ask... Why does the bell have a crack in it on all of the Franklins?

This is the real Liberty Bell in Philadelphia. The first time it was rung, it cracked.

There was actually a small controversy when the was being designed as to whether or not the crack should be shown. Some people thought having a cracked bell would be ridiculous and show America in a bad light. Others, rightly, thought that not showing the famous crack would be even more ridiculous.

It gives the coins character!

The second Mercury flight was named Liberty Bell 7. The pilot was Gus Grissom. He had the crack painted onto the exterior of the space capsule. When the capsule splashed down the ingress/egress hatch's explosive bolts blew (there is controversy over whether Grissom fired the hatch or not). The capsule filled up with ocean water and sank. Ever since then there has never been another space craft with a crack (or other deformity) painted on it.

It's no secret, I love my SMS cameos. Here are a couple, hope you enjoy them as much as I do.

 

1967 PCGS 67 Cam, so very close to dcam and better than my ucam.

 

My 1966 NGC 66 Ucam, self made:

 

And last but not least, my 1965 in PCGS 66 Cam. What a beauty. I love it more than my 65 in 67 Cam. Please don't drool too much, I've already taken care of that!

[robec1347]

Those are beautiful Sam. The 1967 looks very much a proof.
