<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Paddy54, post: 6256984, member: 19250&quot;]Having been laid up for the last couple months the time has given me a chance to revisit some finds as well coins in the collection.</p><p>This was a very cool bag find that almost never happen....you see the mint never released any&nbsp; uncirculated 2001 P or D Kennedy halfs. Well they did but not until like 8 to 9 years after 2001.</p><p>Sometime around 2008/09 the mint finally sold rolls and bags of the 2001 P &amp; D.</p><p>This find was only found in the $100 bags mixed $50/50 P&amp;D coins. As the would never be able to be rolled....never able to be rolled?&nbsp; Correct...as the find was a 2001 Kennedy half that was concaved!</p><p>Yes sort of spoon shaped....and as you stacked them the stack would fall over as the coins in question had a die crack that connected all 50 stars on the reverse causing the coin to be concaved.&nbsp; &quot;See image&quot;</p><p>After my first specimen found I ordered like 10 bags. Each bag had about 10 +/- examples of the reverse die crack concaved coin. The reason they were only found in bags is again the coins wouldn&#039;t stack...in fact you can spin the coin on its reverse like a top. </p><p>I&#039;ve seen bags on the bay several times asking a decent premium.&nbsp; </p><p>I havent done any roll or bag searching these days.....mostly due to time and finding errors or varieties in bags has become almost nil.</p><p>Here is a image of two 2001 Kennedy&#039;s&nbsp; one flat the other spoon shaped. [ATTACH=full]1247667[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1247670[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>Look at the connect the dot ...I mean stars... notice the&nbsp; bottom coin looks raised. And the top looks flat.</p><p>The bottom coin if you placed a drop of water on the obv. Edge the drop would slide down to Kennedys face center coin. Wow $100 2001 P/D mint bags going for $249.00 on the bay.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
