    Generally, Kennedy Halves are pretty easy to collect. They have high mintages, and great availability, except for the later Silver Proofs, and varieties and special issues. 1970D is tough in high grade MS, as are 1982 P and D in high MS.

    In my opinion, the 2014 anniversary set has some of the lowest mintage, beautiful Silver Kennedys. I did not order the set from the mint. Rather, I have gotten a NGC PF 70 version of all 4 coins. I just bought my favorite, the 2014 W Silver Reverse Proof. To me, it is an extremely attractive coin. The mintage is 218, 783, which is third lowest, behind the 1998s Matte Proof, and the 1964 Accented Hair, which are 65,000, and 100,000, respectively.

    Here is my most recent, and #4 of the set in PF 70. This one just absolutely explodes:

    I ordered 4 of those anniversary (2014) sets from the mint and wound up sending three back. The quality control was atrocious. Heck, even the one I kept still had a few minor issues with it but it was the best set out of the four ordered.

    You got the best of the best Dave. Congrats. :)

    That is a very attractive coin. Anyone would be proud to own that.

    Very nice coin. The 2019-S reverse proof is scarce, too. It clocks in at just under 100,000 pieces.

    Your comments are well received. I did buy the 2014 Kennedy 4 coin set. I've only opened the box twice. The first time was when I received the package. I wanted to make sure all was in the box.
    Although, it is nice to see how our coins grade, I'm not one to do so.
    I usually get all of the ASE's. What was the 2018 S ?.

    Great set to have and I thought all four were very attractive in my set. I like your label as well. Thanks for sharing.
