The two types are not interchangeable. The 1965 business strike Kennedy half dollar was not minted on a “Specially prepared planchet” like the 1965 SMS Kennedy was, the same can be said for the 1966 and 1967 half dollars.</font></font></span></p><p><br /></p><p><span style="color: black"><font size="3"><font face="Times New Roman">I just do not see the similarity you are trying to make.

PCGS treats the 1998-S Mattie in their Registry only as a variety in the circulation strike set(s) and not required in the basic set(s).</span></font></font></span></p><p><span style="color: black"><font face="Times New Roman"><font size="3"><span style="color: black"><br /></span></font></font></span></p><p><span style="color: black"><font face="Times New Roman"><font size="3"><span style="color: black"></span><span style="color: black">PS:&nbsp; I hope you are right that there is “potential for the series in general (for high condition sets)…”&nbsp; Not sure if my set would be considered “high condition” but it is nice to think! </span></font></font></span></p><p><span style="color: black"><font face="Times New Roman"><font size="3"><br /></font></font></span></p><p><span style="color: black"><font face="Times New Roman"><font size="3"></font></font></span>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
