Look at post #30, believe I answered your question . . .
You say that I’m full of misinformation, please elaborate. The only thing I have stated on this thread is the ‘historical record’ that you can...
Links are there, look at post #27 and 28. Post #27 is retyped on the Mint's web site and Post # 28 is a PDF file of the original document. . .
I guess the question here is: Should you believe someone who hocked a book 40 + years after the fact with no direct knowledge or the two...
No problem. I think James Wiles is the one making this confused. Dr. Wiles could keep this issue cleaned up by instead on just saying...
Both designers of the Kennedy half dollar, Gilroy Roberts and Frank Gasparro, documented / recorded their involvement with the creation of the...

Negative . . . If you read the timeline from the Reminiscences on the Creation of the Kennedy Half Dollar by Gilroy Roberts, you will notice that...

JFI: In this thread, David Lange states clearly how NGC handles the 1966 FS-901....
If you think your 1966 is the FS-901, send that puppy in and get it attributed. I’ve paid my tuition to learn what it takes to get a variety...
LOL. Yes, PCGS and NGC both have attributed examples of the 1966 ADR-001 and ADR-002 as the FS-901. They have both also attributed examples of...
The Cherrypickers’ Guide is still in print so I’m hesitant to post copy write material. Wiles’ book has been out of print for decades and the last...
Stage D is NOT the ADR-001 in James Wiles’ book. The variety becomes ADR-001 only at Stage E, period. The photo I uploaded came from Wiles’...
I hope the attached file is viewable, this is the first time I’ve tried to use this feature. The below attachment from Wiles’ book, please pay...
