<p>[QUOTE="Caleb, post: 1870833, member: 32795"]I’m not sure how many NGC higher grade Kennedy half dollars you have seen, how many of the same in PCGS holders and how many NGC holders you have tried to cross over to PCGS but I can assure you that a majority of Kennedy half dollars in NGC will downgrade one point when crossed over to PCGS plastic.

I just checked my inventory and I have four “Accented hair” in PCGS PR69 that I would let go for just 50 cent on the dollar of the price you quoted and I would be laughing all the way to the bank. I don’t think you will be willing to pay $11,000 per coin for something that should be valued at less then 15 % of that figure.</p><p> </p><p>In regards to NGC PR68 “Accented Hair” Kennedy half dollars being common, not sure what standard you are using but the population just at PCGS is 964 in PR67; 390 in PR68; and 48 in PR69 (that is a total of over 1400 coin just in PCGS plastic and not even considering the populations of CAM or DCAM designations that most collectors try for).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
[QUOTE="Caleb, post: 1870833, member: 32795"]I’m not sure how many NGC higher grade Kennedy half dollars you have seen, how many of the same in PCGS holders and how many NGC holders you have tried to cross over to PCGS but I can assure you that a majority of Kennedy half dollars in NGC will downgrade one point when crossed over to PCGS plastic. This is not speculation but fact. When it comes to studying Kennedy half dollar varieties, I have read my fair share of articles and books on the subject and while I do not consider myself an expert on this denomination, I do consider myself a well informed collector on the series with varieties. Now if you think a 1964 “Accented Hair” NGC PR69 Kennedy half dollar is worth $22,000 then that must have been one heck of a pothole the turnip truck you were riding in hit. I just checked my inventory and I have four “Accented hair” in PCGS PR69 that I would let go for just 50 cent on the dollar of the price you quoted and I would be laughing all the way to the bank.

In regards to NGC PR68 “Accented Hair” Kennedy half dollars being common, not sure what standard you are using but the population just at PCGS is 964 in PR67; 390 in PR68; and 48 in PR69 (that is a total of over 1400 coin just in PCGS plastic and not even considering the populations of CAM or DCAM designations that most collectors try for).[/QUOTE]
