White gold is the same as a bright white dipped silver coin, or pink copper, in my opinion. They've had their surfaces stripped, and I don't like...
CaptHenway is Tom Delorey. There are few people alive who know more about coins.
As typecoin mentioned, there's way too much going on with the obverse and absolutely nothing on the reverse. I say this one is faked.
Holy Mother of Venus. Did some poking around and the price he's asking for them is not just insane. It's practically criminal. $495 for a "Choice...
They are listed as a separate line on the census. Only 140 are listed - which probably implies the rest of them are in special holders labelled as...
Sad that this went to Rick Tomaska's TV show, but the item itself is pretty dang cool:...
I think the absolute highest priority of every collector should be to learn to grade for themselves. Any serious collector needs to be confident...

Congrats on (almost) finishing the set! Even if they aren't the highest grade, assembling that set is still something impressive to be proud of.
64. Not FBL.
PLs are unknown from 1972 through 1985, but in the late 80's they started becoming more common. PLs are known for most dates from the late 80's...
The 40% silver years are particularly intriguing to me, as PL's are known for several dates. PLs from 1970D are quite common, but 68D and 69D are...
Very few of the 1964 Kennedy's are known in prooflike condition, but they do exist. Here's mine in semi-prooflike, graded NGC MS-64* [ATTACH]...
