<p>[QUOTE="stldanceartist, post: 2330652, member: 13307"]Just taking a peek through some rolls of halves I pulled from bank rolls a few years back. Yes, that's right...somehow this one survived SO MANY opportunities to get cherrypicked/damaged. Completely forgot how gorgeous this one was...I don't see clad Kennedy halves with this type of toning all that often. Not too many major distracting marks, pretty clean obverse fields...which leads me to my questions:</p><p><br /></p><p>What do you think this would grade (if it was sent to NGC/PCGS)? Not really worth sending in (in terms of cost) unless it goes 66 or higher, and as long as the grader isn't on the "today, all toning is artificial toning" part of the AT/NT grading coin flip.</p><p><br /></p><p>What do you think is going on at 1 o'clock (obverse) and 5 o'clock (reverse)?
