<p>[QUOTE=&quot;19Lyds, post: 1699074, member: 15929&quot;]While it&#039;s no Toned Beauty nor an high grade MS or even an MS Coin. Kennedy Variety Collectors will appreciate this one!</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH]258832.vB[/ATTACH]&nbsp;&nbsp; [ATTACH]258830.vB[/ATTACH]&nbsp;&nbsp; [ATTACH]258831.vB[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>The 1972-D No FG (FS-901) is a really, really tough coin to find in any grade. MS Examples are rare according to modern coin standards. PCGS has graded only 2 at MS63 and most recently 1 in MS62. The majority of these are AU or less when they can be found.</p><p><br /></p><p>Some Teletrade Links:</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.teletrade.com/coins/lot.asp?auction=2763&amp;lot=1452" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.teletrade.com/coins/lot.asp?auction=2763&amp;lot=1452" rel="nofollow">http://www.teletrade.com/coins/lot.asp?auction=2763&amp;lot=1452</a></p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.teletrade.com/coins/lot.asp?auction=3284&amp;lot=1696" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.teletrade.com/coins/lot.asp?auction=3284&amp;lot=1696" rel="nofollow">http://www.teletrade.com/coins/lot.asp?auction=3284&amp;lot=1696</a></p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.teletrade.com/coins/lot.asp?auction=3379&amp;lot=1925" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.teletrade.com/coins/lot.asp?auction=3379&amp;lot=1925" rel="nofollow">http://www.teletrade.com/coins/lot.asp?auction=3379&amp;lot=1925</a></p><p><br /></p><p>I traded my MS63 a couple of years ago for about $1200 worth of MS66 Kennedy&#039;s. I don&#039;t regret the trade but I do miss the coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>The thing with these No FG coins is that only coins where the initials are abraded away count. Grease filled die&#039;s are plentiful and as such, just don&#039;t count.</p><p><br /></p><p>The 1982 P and D coins are as common as dirt when compared to the 1972-D.</p><p><br /></p><p>Prices seemed to have softened since it&#039;s more or less a specialty coin and the big money players are holding out for some high MS examples.</p><p>Good Luck to them since this coin was never collected as the die abrasion is so deep, it appears to be a worn XF coin, even in MS. For this reason, none were set aside and attrition has claimed all but a scant few MS and circulated examples.</p><p><br /></p><p>Unfortunately, the above coin is suffering from coin roller damage which can be seen on the obverse. Otherwise, I&#039;d send this one in for grading and attribution without a second thought![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
