1948 Franklin Half

[FranklinHalfAddict]

I sent this coin in to NGC about a year and a half ago. What do you all think?

MS 64 FBL.

 

Needs more luster for me.

65FBL.

Initial thought was 64 FBL. - 65 FBL wouldn't be a crime though.

A year and a half? I think it's taking a very long time!

Haha. Yeah NGC's turn around times are a little slow right now.

NGC gave it a 64 FBL.

I personally thought it was a solid 65. It has very minimal marks and a nice clean look overall. The luster is pretty good, not great, but I would say above average and certainly enough to warrant a gem grade.

I have thought about resubmitting it but it really wouldn't be worth it since I have $88 into the coin already. I will probably have it sent off to CAC as I'm pretty much certain it will get the green bean, gold would be sweet, though.

64 or 65, it's a really nice looking coin.
