<p>[QUOTE=&quot;RaceBannon, post: 1013345, member: 25357&quot;]Hang on to &#039;em, they&#039;re novelties!</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I actually just started my Dansco 8166 the Kennedy Half plus proofs. A lot of beautiful coins, especially the proofs. I hadn&#039;t seen any in circulation, so I went around to a few banks to inquire as to whether they had any rolls. Most of the tellers just looked at me like I had a third eye. But on my fifth bank I hit the jackpot, one teller had four rolls, she was only too happy to get rid of them.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Since I&#039;m assembling the collection in MS/BU, I searched the rolls, found a couple that appeared to be mint state, and have had a ball putting the others back into circulation.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Today my wife tried to pay for something at the pharmacy, when presented with the Kennedy Half, the pharmacist asked &quot;Is this legal tender?&quot; To which my wife responded: &quot;Yes it is.&quot; The pharmacist: &quot;I&#039;m going to have to ask my manager if we can accept this.&quot;</p><p>After some back an forth, they relented and reluctantly accepted this legal US tender coin.</p><p>I wish I could have been there![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
