Ben Franklin you never looked so good!
This baby is modestly graded in my minds eye should be 67 * obverse looks cam to me, not UCam but Cam none-the-less. Needless to say eye appeal is right on. Love the coin can you tell? LOL

1960 Franklin Half Dollar.
It’s a beautiful coin; it is defiantly eye candy. It's a Gem Proof coin and like the title says "It Really Shines".

pr66 is good but pr68, pr69 is better
66 is a weak grade, cause it goes to pr70, but if you find a franklin at that grade your talking big money
