    Hi, would like your opinion on the Washington quarter and Kennedy Half dollar.

    Photos taken outside and notice a little dust from the wind on them.

    Obviously proofs but what are they doing outside a holder of some type? Why do you have proofs outside for the photos? Hopefully you didn't leave them there.

    1965, 1966, 1967 all had Special Mint Sets, The thing is I got the 1965 mint set. I have been looking for the other two but no luck yet. I came across the 66 and 67 set but not what I really wanted. I notice the camo, so I got the two sets. Here are the photos of what they came in.

    Now the Proofs: 1,863,344 (Special Mint Set) for the 1967
    Proofs: 2,261,583 (Special Mint Set) 1966
    Proofs: 2,360,000 (Special Mint Set) 1965

    They have been handle with kid gloves, so I don't mess they up

    The Kennedy almost looks like a CAM but the Washington does not. At least from the photos which can be deceiving.

    They both look like a pretty high grade and very clean.

    Yeah, coin photos are tough, it took me 5 years to take what I call decent photos and I'm still learning. :eek:

    I just took this '64 Kennedy and have about 20 shots that look completely different but yet they all show different details making the choice between photos to show impossible.
