Owner's Description

Type 1 eagle photo closeup indicates minimal detail on eagle feathers (breast, wings, neck) + 4 wing tips to the left of perch.

Type 1 pop survival rates are proven very low.

All '56's @ ngc are automatically reviewed to determine type 1 or 2 variety.

None at 69 cameo level at PCGS, probably due to higher cameo requirement?

Very few cameos at this top pop level. Ultras and DC's/cameos have total pop"s that are the lowest (1/15)compared to all other franklin dates.
