<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cpm9ball, post: 1903679, member: 24633&quot;]Well, all I can say is that I learned of the 2nd specimen when the owner listed it raw on eBay in late spring of 2005. His coin was also missing the reverse clad layer. He claimed that it was a one-of-a-kind. So, I sent him an e-mail and politely informed him that I also had one (they both were found in the $100 Mixed P&amp;D bags that the Mint released in late 2004) and mine had already been graded by NGC. He thanked me for the info and amended his listing with the update.</p><p><br /></p><p>His coin sold raw for $555. Since errors are not listed in the census, I have no way of knowing if it was ever submitted for grading, and I continued to search eBay listings for another specimen for the next 5 years. None had ever surfaced. I can only conclude that these are the only 2 specimens that left the Mint undetected.</p><p><br /></p><p>If I were to sell this today, I wouldn&#039;t accept anything less than $1,000. The funny part is that many dealers believe there is more value for the coin if it is missing the obverse layer. In this case, I disagree. Try picturing a red-faced Kennedy in your mind. I think the Presidential Seal looks fantastic in copper!</p><p><br /></p><p>Chris[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
