2 Great boxes (1955 Franklin), UPDATED PICS OF 1955 FRANKLIN

[cdickrun64]

Did 4 boxes tonight......CWI's dated Dec 0x, 2009. (Last weeks 2 CWI boxes were very good).

Box #1 - 2 - 64's and 1 - 67.

Box #2 - 2 - 64's, MY FIRST WALKER (1943), AND MY FIRST FRANKLINS!!
FOUR FRANKLINS WERE 1951-P, 1954-D, 1963-D AND......A BEAUTIFUL MS 1955-P....I'M GUESSING MS-60, MAYBE 62.

Total melt around $100......1955-p franklin adds another $30 or so!! My best box yet!!

My apologies to all you hunters out there for finding a 1955-p Franklin in my 18th box searched (and first box with any franklin).

Nice find. I have found more than 400 Franklins and not one 55! Way to go.

Nice find on the 1955. I'm on the west coast so doubtful I'll ever get one.

Judging from the pictures AU-55 to AU-58 depending on how the luster is in hand.

Nice find!!

Nice Ben Franklin score. Hard to tell from the pic, but I think your 1955 is
a Ms-63, Just my opinion

That's a beauty! Never found one myself in almost three year's hunting. Had to buy one to complete my folder.

Nice cull on the silver and a beauty on the 55. From your pics, there seems to be a bit too much rub on the cheek to give a MS grade. The fields are clean without distracting nicks and scratches. I would grade it an AU-58. It might swing an MS 60 if what you see in your hand is better than the pictures. Either way, it is a sweet score. Congrats.
