<p>[QUOTE=&quot;19Lyds, post: 2719646, member: 15929&quot;]Back to the special strikes for the NNC.</p><p><br /></p><p>When these coins were found, there is no indication that the were actually in sets unless someone can provide that specific pictorial or editorial information.</p><p>Is it NOT possible, that these were a part of the special strikes created for the NNC which were left overs?</p><p><br /></p><p>And WHY were they supposedly in Eva Adams estate?</p><p><br /></p><p>With no &quot;specific&quot; record of them being minted, and I seriously doubt that the special strikes minted for the NNC had any specific documentation since they were only discovered recently, is there more conjecture related to these coins than what actually exists?</p><p><br /></p><p>Not proof, not standard business strikes, definitely special handling involved with each coin AND it is a KNOWN fact that the US Mint produced special strikes specifically for the NNC.</p><p><br /></p><p>At the very least, the coin could be considered illegal but then, the legality of certain issues has always been questionable all the way from the 1913 Liberty Nickels up to and including Presidential Dollar errors which we know were stolen by a Security Guard and sold to Error Coin Dealers (but which ones).</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m just not willing to jump onto the 1964 SMS Sets speculation given recent results in numismatic investigations.</p><p><br /></p><p>As it stands, these are being successfully marketed and promoted at SMS coins and it is extremely difficult to swim upstream.</p><p><br /></p><p>PS-I almost forgot to mention that the PCGS Population reports, if in fact sets were manufactured, shows 29 Washington Quarters as SMS coins but only 13 Kennedy&#039;s. You;d think that if there were &quot;sets&quot; made, that the pops would be closer given the current value of the coins.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
