Dockwalliper Posted December 21, 2005 Report Share Posted December 21, 2005 I don't think they will sell as well as the Marines. http://www.usmint.gov/mint_programs/commem...action=Franklin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dockwalliper Posted December 21, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2005 I have my doubts that Franklin was ever that thin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burks Posted December 21, 2005 Report Share Posted December 21, 2005 I like both but will only order one. Probably the Founding Father. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UncleBobo Posted December 21, 2005 Report Share Posted December 21, 2005 I love the Founding Father but I will also have to order the other one because it has a reference to New Jersey on the reverse!! And JOIN, or DIE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Sisu Posted December 21, 2005 Report Share Posted December 21, 2005 I don't think they will sell as well as the Marines. http://www.usmint.gov/mint_programs/commem...action=Franklin Was that the correct link? That looked more like Ozzy and some kind of related memorabilia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RalphP13 Posted December 23, 2005 Report Share Posted December 23, 2005 I really like the reverse of the "founding father" and the reference to the continental dollar. Not as good as the real one though Ralph Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scottishmoney Posted December 23, 2005 Report Share Posted December 23, 2005 Was that the correct link? That looked more like Ozzy and some kind of related memorabilia.

jody526 Posted December 25, 2005 Report Share Posted December 25, 2005 Very nice tributes to a great man. Franklin was a genius, and a true American hero. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Stujoe Posted December 25, 2005 Report Share Posted December 25, 2005 I will think very hard about getting the Continental Currency one. I will probably regret it if I don't get it. Every time I see the young Franklin one, I think to myself "I didn't know Ben was a cowboy!" Ben Franklin Getting Ready To Lasso A Calf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UncleBobo Posted January 17, 2006 Report Share Posted January 17, 2006 I can wait. It won't sell out today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Sisu Posted January 17, 2006 Report Share Posted January 17, 2006 Yes, I will probably wait as well. I will try and combine it later with at least one other order as that is one of the few convenient things that the US Mint does do- combine shipping on the same order.
