2006 Modern Commemorative U.S. Constitution Bicentennial NGC PF-70 ULTRA CAMEO Scientist
The 300th Anniversary of the Birth of Benjamin Franklin was an auspicious event for America. Of all the “Founding Fathers” Franklin is the only one to have signed all four of our most important documents: the Declaration of Independence, the Treaty of Alliance with France, the Treaty of Paris which ended the Revolutionary War and the United States Constitution. The Congress of the United States voted for and approved two commemorative silver dollars for the event. One would depict Franklin as a younger man and the other in his later years. They would be called the “Scientist” for the younger Franklin and the “Founding Fathers” for the older Franklin.
The obverse of the Scientist version was designed by Norman E. Nemeth. It depicts a younger Benjamin Franklin flying a kite with a key on it, representing his earlier experiments with electricity and an attempt to harness the power of lightning. Around the upper periphery are “LIBERTY” and “1706 – 2006.” To the right of the figure are “BENJAMIN – FRANKLIN – SCIENTIST” on three lines. To the left and below is “IN GOD WE TRUST.”
The reverse was designed by Charles Vickers, and it depicts one of Franklin’s famous political cartoons of a snake being cut into pieces with the caption “JOIN OR DIE” as this cartoon was supposed to influence the colonies that were resisting opposing British rule of the American colonies.

"Amazing service and hospitality from the staff at IDC! Jason was so attentive and patient in our search for our ideal watches. He took us through several options, had us try every watch we were interested in, took our information and continued searching for options. A few hours later, we had our watches on hold and ready for pick up! He located a watch that I LOVE, and a unique piece for my husband. We are grateful to have found our new Jeweler for many pieces to come!"
