I purchased this from a fellow member's eBay store. I'm very pleased!
These pictures are the sellers and I could do no better.
Shame about the dings on "A" in HALF and the shield, but any suggestions on grade?
Thanks for checking it out!

The guy at the gas station saves these for me

1998 S Matte Proof Kennedy

 

The lighting's not that great, but a gold-idh toning has started around the rim on both sides.

 

I love this satin finish of the 2006 mint set

 

I do too! Very nice, thanks for showing it.

One of these days I'll remove my '70-D from its cardboard holder and get some snaps for this thread.

 

I have a nicely toned 70 proof Kennedy. It sat in a 2x2 for over 30 years. I'll have to dig it out.

 

The silver Bicentennials.

 

No pictures yet, but I just bought a bicentennial silver proof Kennedy half.

 

A die clash on a proof! Excellent!

 

I need to take a picture of my '64 for this thread next time I open my coin box. It has patina and story behind it. The house I grew up in was built in 1964, and had a built in set of drawers at the end of the hallway. It was a funky'60s paradise. One room had green and blue shag carpet in it. The exterior was green and white. There was a room across the carport with screen doors instead of real doors which was my bedroom as a teenager. The only bad thing about it was that it didn't have central air. Anyway, to get back to the story, the builders left a new JFK underneath the drawers and when my mom was cleaning up, she found it. I didn't know about it until a few months ago, and she gave it to me. It is fitting that it is a 1964, the only year of 90% silver Kennedy halves, as they are special coins and that was a special house. As far as I know, it's actually uncirculated or very lightly circulated, but it has tarnished to a black on the reverse and part of the obverse.

 

Chocolate '72 halves that were on my birthday cake.

 

Great strike on this 64! Thanks for sharing it with us
