    I was about to ask the same thing. That coin is is like an oil slick on the ocean as the sun sets. Very pretty and unusual reverse.

    You guys are killing me with all the off-the-charts Kennedys. :bigtears:

    When I got back into coins as an adult, it was what I collected. I sold most of them off around 2013 timeframe, to focus on Type Collecting, but I do still love the design, its calls to me. And the amazing toning on some of these recent posts is just making me mental, feels like I need to run out and buy some. :hungry:

    I have already posted these in this thread, but here are the ones I kept:

    Hi guys. I am new to the forum. I am a Norwegian US coin collector. I love the Kennedy half dollars and have almost all of them. Just missing the 2017S in my collection =)

    New here. Hi. Years ago I received a collection that an old grandmother who died in the late 1980's built. I have gone through them a lot over the years. The Morgan's, Peace,Franklin's, Liberty's and wheats have given me a lot of fun times. There has always been a box of Kennedys with it but after the first glimpse I never really paid any more attention to but recently I started looking into errors on my other coins and so I thought that I would get rid of them to get more change to go through. I decided to check them out first . I think I will keep them. I unwrapped 9 rolls sealed and a bunch that she wrapped. Getting ready for a bunch of excitment. New and never checked.

    At the very least, pull out and keep the 90% and 40% silvers. 1964, and 1965-1970 respectively. Also, as @Caleb and a few others here will tell you, there a ton of lesser known varieties in this series you may want to look for.

    I am an old poot on SSI and I collect, among other coins, DCAM Proof 90% silver Kennedys. They are not high dollar coins but I like the silver bling. Just melts my butter. Has to be 100% bright. I am not a collector of toned coins although I know many others are. Here are 2006-S proof silver kennedy.jpg

    My roll of 2019-D was not much better than this one. There is a big gash on the reverse shield.

    Be sure to crimp the staples in the 2x2's so you don't scratch another coin.

    Sorry to ask. But I have a bicentennial half dollar. How do you know if it's worth something?

    Please, and thank you

    Hi, welcome to CT.
    You need to create your own post in one of the forums. Please show both sides of the coin in good light and in focus. You will get more views and more responses. The last post before yours was back in April so not too many people are looking
