Full Bell Lines Franklin Half Dollars
Franklin Half Dollars are often characterized by weak strikes or excessive contact marks. This is because of the relatively flat, broad surfaces of the coins. Collectors use the designation "Full Bell Lines" to refer to coins which have all of the horizontal lines on the Liberty Bell present. This is an indication of a strong strike and high quality coin. Some years carry very high premiums for coins carrying the FBL designation.
