Not some weak, toning where you have to rotate the coin in hand to see the colors. The reverse of this coin ABSOLUTELY GLOWS gold. The obverse glows a color similar to rose-gold (if you have any vintage jewelry). Not only are the pictures not altered - they don't do this stunning specimen justice. The pictures do not even begin to show how bright and bold the Gold toning on this coin really is. I almost didn't use the pictures I have up right now because they truly do not capture the vibrant nature of the toning but maybe you they give you an idea of the intense gold toning on this rare high-grade specimen. See my other coins and you will see that I am NOT one to make a big deal about toning unless it is VERY significant. The coloring on this rare specimen is not just vibrant - it's downright convincing: I showed my wife this coin and she thought it was struck on a gold planchet! And she is fairly knowledgeable on numismatics being that she is my wife!1948 PCGS MS-64 FBL Franklin Half!This is the actual coin! - DO NOT STEAL MY IMAGES.What more could you ask for?I PROVIDE A 2ND SILVER COIN TO GIVE YOU AN EXAMPLE OF HOW HEAVY THIS TONING IS. NO OTHER SELLERS WILL DO THIS. ASK YOURSELF WHY! DO NOT BUY THIS COIN! FIRST GO LOOK AT THE OTHER "GOLD TONED" PCGS FRANKLIN HALVES THAT THE SELLERS ARE ASKING HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS OVER BOOK VALUE FOR! THEN COME BACK AND BUY WITH CONFIDENCE. IT'S VERY IMPORTANT THAT IT'S PCGS OR THE TONING IS ALMOST CERTAINLY FAKE.NO OTHER SELLERS HAVE ANYTHING CLOSE TO REAL GOLD TONING. AS THE WORLD FAMOUS CHERRYPICKER'S GUIDE MAKES CLEAR: TRUE, BRIGHT, BOLD GOLD TONING IS EXTREMELY RARE AND HIGHLY SOUGHT AFTER. BUT IT IS ALSO HIGHLY FAKED. SO IF THE COIN ISN'T PCGS THEN YOU CAN BASICALLY ASSUME THAT THE COIN HAS BEEN ARTIFICIALLY TONED AND IS WORTHLESS.See my eBay Store and namesake website for more key date coins and high grade rarities at low prices!IT'S ACTUALLY SO MUCH BRIGHTER AND DEEPER!!! IT'S LIKE THE GRAND CANYON - ONLY SEEING IT IN REAL LIFE CAN RELATE HOW INCREDIBLE IT IS.******** Normal 0 false false false MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 Read our eBay Policies: By purchasing you agree to these policies.
