[QUOTE="Ethan, post: 1924161, member: 68800"]I am having fun, I know many already of knew of this, but I did not. When I got back into collecting I chose to collect Kennedy's and here I am. I just found out about it and educated myself on it. No different that when I learned of the 98S Matte, I learned about it and then went an got one raw. When at a show, I saw one PCGS MS69(older slab) for $100, I grabbed it. Its all about learning my chosen part of the hobby. That is why I have the other threads on 64 and varieties. It is so that I can learn and folks can learn along with me if they choose. Is this 1/2 Accented Hair a big deal? Well from what I have learned, I think it could be someday.
