Owner Comments:

PROOF 66 CAMEO.

** CONDITION RARITY ** SPECTACULAR ULTRA CAMEO OBVERSE! NGC took an extremely conservative approach to grading this coin.

SPECTACULAR WHITE FROST DEVICES SET AGAINST DEEEEEP 'BLACK HOLE' MIRRORS. THE CAMEO IS ULTRA HEAVY ON THE OBVERSE AND EXTRA HEAVY ON THE REVERSE. PRISTINE SURFACES MAKE THIS AN OUTSTANDING EXAMPLE OF A 1959 FRANKLIN HALF. STUNNING ULTRA CAMEO OBVERSE MAKES THIS 1959 FRANKLIN ONE OF THE PRETTIEST COINS I HAVE EVER OWNED. EXTREMELY CONSERVATIVE GRADE ON THIS COIN! A SERIOUS RE-GRADE CANDIDATE.

MY FAVORITE FRANKLIN. Hey NGC, where's the STAR ?
HOLDER SHOULD SAY ' STAR CAMEO .' KIND OF A NO-BRAINER.



THANKS TO JEFF WERLIN (JW CAMEO ON EBAY) FOR SELLING ME THIS STUNNING EXAMPLE OF A 1959 FRANKLIN.
