toned in iridescent shades of purple, plum, burgundy, green, orange, gold.....virtually every color of the rainbow, can sometimes be found on a single coin! The design of the Franklin half, with the broad expanse of Franklin''s bust on the obverse, and the Liberty bell on the reverse, is an easy target for bagmarks or abrasion. A pristine Franklin half, with a smooth, unblemished cheek of Franklin on the obverse, and equally pristine Liberty bell on the reverse, is a truly beautiful coin. On the other hand, the simplicity of these surfaces also serves to magnify, or hilight, the smallest bagmark! The cheek of Franklin & the Liberty bell make easy targets. The quality uncirculated mint set 1958 of proof the typical uncirculated franklin roll is quite low, with all 20 coins usually grading between ms 60 and ms 63. by comparison, if one had the good fortune to acquire an original roll of uncirculated walking liberty half dollars (the series immediately preceding the franklins, minted from 1916-1947) the general quality of the coins would likely be quite high, with set most coins grading ms 64 - ms 65. what about any hordes of gem bu franklins that have yet to surface? 1958 original unsearched bags of bu franklins? the last bag

successive coin struck from one of these dies would exhibit somewhat less cameo contrast than the coin before. eventually, the intense pressure of die on planchet would proof wear the devices to the same smooth, brilliant appearance as the set surrounding 1958 fields of the coin. these subsequent coins, brilliant proofs, have no discernible contrast between the devices and fields. proof they are also far more common than the earlier cameo strikes. in recognition of the collector demand for these cameos, the mint began experimenting with sandblasting techniques in the early-mid 1970''s which helped create a much more intense cameo effect. they also began chromeplating the dies to give them added durability. as a result of these new techniques, proof dies today can strike many hundreds of exceptional "black & white" cameos before they begin to wear. what is somewhat astonishing, however, is that if one is patient, and fortunate, one can occasionally find cameos minted from the earlier 1950 to 1970 era that possess the intense cameo contrast, quality, and eye-appeal of these later proofs! these very early strikes, depending set on the year, are obviously 1958 quite rare. when one also considers the inferior nature of the proof
