[QUOTE="jaceravone, post: 1519033, member: 9474"]So you are making me work for it. Ok, fair enough. I agree with 2 out of 3 coins that you have up there. The 1970D is questionable because there are now lower mintage Kennedy's - of course all of which are available in mint sets. The other two coins are keys - but only if you are collecting those complete sets. As I mentioned in a previous post, depending on what set you are collecting determines what are the keys.

And because it was only available in mint sets, it has a lower mintage than the rest which in turn makes it the key. Am I wrong about this?[/QUOTE]
