    I just wanted to share some of the raw Kennedy halves that I've scooped up lately.
    Kennedy's have always produced some amazing colors, especially the 90% silver, 1964's.
    I know some folks would not find these attractive at all. That's just fine and i can completely understand!

    Don't get me wrong, I do enjoy blazing white examples, but these toning patterns are very desirable to me.
    Every one is unique and the toning really gives character to John.

    Greg, it's too bad that Lee Harvey Oswald wasn't still around when they were struck because if the fingerprint on either of the first two were his...................

    Nice coins! I like these kinds SO much better than blast white examples. (I have a few toned '64s, but I dont have any pics right now.)

    It's so easy to find blast white 64 kennedy, but the toned ones are something to be proud of!

    Don't get me started Morgandude!
    Oh, and Mdude, I did the unthinkable...I picked up some Franklins. :(
    Just when I thought I rid myself of them, I became possessed and ended up with more. Lame.
    At least they are toned.

    GORGEOUS--completely gorgeous. I can't see anybody, even if they are blast white enthusiasts not thinking that these are masterpieces!
