Thanks for the support. I will continue to study these illusive Phantom coins in an effort to further educate myself in this mysterious early...
Chris, Paul M. suggested possible die markers as a method for id. I can see your point that they would not represent the entire run. Do you...
Chris, You missed the point. I too have many examples of SMS, SP, Matte Proof, etc. My inquiry is simply to see if anyone knows if there are...
Does anyone know the difference between a 1965 Kennedy in mint state vs. in special mint set? I know this question sounds ignorant, but on many...
I agree with you 100%
That,s exactly what I mean. 70s are flawless, 69,s are almost flawless, and who on Earth would want anything else? Anyway, with modern Eagles,...
As I recall, in a recent thread, PCGS is said to be in BOTH the grading and dealing industry. This seems to me to be conflict of interest to the...
I have a 2005-p business strike Kennedy, NGC graded 66. Any one without vision problems will grade it 67 min. but it looks 68. Quiet a difference!
I also have no problem with either NGC or PCGS. I buy both as long as I like the coin! I have several of each which the grade does not match...
I must say that in the last few years I,ve also seen many of his shows, and learned a LOT from him. As for buying coins on T V, I don,t. I live...
I watch Rick Tomaska on his weekly T V show. He is selling b u Morgans in plastic capsules and compares these coins with graded pieces. If...
If all we have to fear is fear itself, than uncertainty may haunt us forever. I still believe that common sense will dominate the markets. My...
"Remember 1980" Most folks don,t want to... I was 29 and energetic. Interest rates were at 10-16% during those Reagan years. I was building a...
Proof Kennedys are around half a mill. Business strikes are one and a half mill. Now, back to the topic of discussion, the 1902 pf Morgan has a...
If the collector base is the same, then the 1970 ms67 Kennedy may be highly undervalued, however, the 1902 pf 65 Morgan has far more absolute...
Well, as morgandude stated, "each to their own", is a Morgan proof better than a ms Kennedy? That might depend on several things; personal...
I collect Kennedys and Ikes because in high grade they both have superior eye appeal, they are both fairly affordable, and they are a challenge...
I attended the Las Vegas Show in the fall and out of 150 or so tables I only found a hand full of Kennedys, none of which I liked. When I met...
Anyone who is serious about collecting Kennedys should buy (a guide book of Franklin and Kennedy Half Dollars) by Rick Tomaska. It is the single...
Sure! As with many of the later Kennedy issues, the mintages are low and the pops are also low. There are probably fewer of these high grade...
