The pictures are way too blurry to tell anything. 54S usually tends to be rather lustrous, mark free, and with a poor strike - yours seems to match that description. Finding one with attractive toning is difficult, they usually have the mottled mint set toning that yours seems to display.

 

In hand, that could be a 65 - but if I were bidding based on those pictures, I'd look to spend 64 money.

 

Your coin does not appear to have FBL - but most of these don't.

This is one of two raw 1954 S Franklins I recently acquired. Any opinions are welcome.

Assuming this coin does not have any hairlines that do not show up, I would say it is easily MS65, and more like MS65+ on a good day. The speckles of color are also very special.
