Owner Comments:
This was the final year that the Mint issued mint sets in cardboard holders that contained sulphur (that toned the coins). Tomaska noted: "Beautifully toned MS66 FBL and MS67 FBL 1958-D Franklins are usually among the most captivating coins in a top Franklin set. The colors are often dramatic - shimmering iridescent 'Peter Max' rainbows on the most spectacular pieces." We couldn't have said it better. This Superb Gem toned '58-D has the shimmering iridescent toning that Mr. Tomaska described. Under the toning, the surfaces are virtually perfect and appear completely mark-free.
