Message:: [QUOTE="gboulton, post: 1061848, member: 27043"]If that's "better process" and those pictures are "right" then yeah, my mind is changed...low 50's at best now due to what appears to be a complete lack of mint luster remaining. At this point, to be honest, unless you're just looking for a grading exercise, there's really not much point in wharrgarbling about a few points either side of 50...it's junk silver, period.  Of course, that was also true earlier, when it looked nicer in the other pictures...it was still WELL south of an MS coin in any grade, and a 64 Kennedy is only going to carry a premium in the highest MS grades. It FEELS to me like you think this coin is something special, and you're trying very hard to get someone to agree with you.  I'm afraid no set of pictures in the world (other than an outright altered set) is going to  change the facts that: 1) The coin is lightly worn below the part of the hair2) Light wear is beginning to show on the high points of the cheek bone3) There's 3 triangular dings above the ear that almost certainly can't be "bag marks". It's a plain ole lightly circulated 90% silver Kennedy.  Stash it or sell it, or start a set of circulated Kennedy Halves with it.[/QUOTE]
