(thumbs u Bob - Your thread count is over 10K - and mine is just over 1K, you comment on quite a few coins being shown. BTW - I adjusted my name in your last post [ quote ]. I should have quite a few more posts coming as I just worked out a major purchase of another Half Dollar collection. Different grades from VF 20 to AU 55. Hope you're doing okay.

physics-fan3.14 Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 Here's a little teaser for the next thread I'm working on. I just purchased a mini-hoard of Franklin clips, and here is one of them. They are all nicely toned, they are all Uncirculated, and they are all in old white ANACS holders. This one is even more interesting in that it is a straight clip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bsshog40 Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 How do they determine something like that to be a clip Jason? I'm not saying it's not, it's just I've seen prominent clips and I would've seen this coin for sale thinking it was post mint damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not saying it's not, it's just I've seen prominent clips and I would've seen this coin for sale thinking it was post mint damage. All shall be explained soon. That's why this was a teaser... In brief, one of the best indicators is the area of weakness directly opposite, evident near the Y of Liberty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lehigh96 Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 Not sure David Hall would like it, but I love everything about it including the price which was under $400. First photo is Heritage, second is mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkyMan Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 I like it, Shane. (thumbs u Interesting combo... toner and cameo. Is there any toning on the reverse? I have never followed toned Franklin proofs, so I'm up in the air as to the toning, but my best guess if it's a one sided toner is that it was in an album.

Old Pueblo Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 This is perhaps the best example of a coin "better" than expected. The images on ebay were "muddy" and made me cautious with my bidding. I received the coin today and was very pleased with this PCGS ms64. The photo falls short of exhibiting the true luster.
