<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Caleb, post: 1911979, member: 32795&quot;]Just to clarify a few facts in the Kennedy series:</p><p>1.&nbsp; There are <b><u>no</u></b> 1964 business strikes QDO.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>2.&nbsp; There are two 1964 Proof QDO’s (CONECA DDO-028 &amp; DDO-035).&nbsp; DDO-028 is on an Accented Hair 1964 Proof and DDO-035 in on a normal hair 1964 Proof sometime referred to as FS-105.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>3.&nbsp; There is one 1964-D QDO (CONECA DDO-005) sometimes referred to as FS-105.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>4.&nbsp; The 1964 Proof DDO-035 is not rare, Wiles estimates that early Proof Kennedy dies would have been used to strike 3,000 – 3,500 coins.&nbsp; The DDO-035 has been found in EDS, MDS and LDS so there is no reason to believe the die didn’t run its full life (It is estimated that business strike dies, if they had no failure, would have been used for 50,000 to 60,000 coins).</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>5.&nbsp; All slabs are not equal.&nbsp; To many times I have sent coins in for cross over to PCGS in NGC, ANACS or IGC holders and the coin downgraded one or two points.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>6.&nbsp; Value, the $100 you paid is a fair price for your coin.&nbsp; The DDO-035 we have in our set graded PR67 at PCGS and we bought it from a collector that knew what he had for $50.&nbsp; The example of 1964 Proof DDO-028 we bought from a dealer attributed only as an “Accented Hair” in a NGC PR68 holder for $90 (the coin downgraded to PR67 when we crossed it over to PCGS).</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>7.&nbsp; If someone really need this variety to fill a hole in his set, I can picture someone coughing up maybe $200 - $250 only if they see it in hand and think it will cross over to PCGS at PR67.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
