Presented here is an uncirculated 1959 Type 2 Franklin half dollar, still in its original mint seal. This specimen exhibits what some refer to as a "woody plating error," while others simply categorize it as a plating error. I have also provided magnified images to highlight specific details for your examination. Please review all accompanying photographs carefully and form your own assessment.
The distinguishing characteristic of a Type 2 error lies in the eagle depicted on the reverse, specifically to the right of the Liberty Bell. In approximately 90% of such coins, the eagle's details, particularly its wings, appear indistinct. However, upon close inspection of the provided images, you will observe that the eagle on this particular coin is remarkably clear. Furthermore, the lines at the base of the Liberty Bell are also distinctly visible. This coin warrants professional submission for grading. We encourage you to evaluate its characteristics independently. Thank you.
