First sticker buy...

Hi guy's, I liked this Kennedy for a few reasons. 1. PCGS holder 2. DCAM Grading 3. Tone and 4. The Rick Tomaska sticker.
I've heard somewhat of the man's stickers but not fully? I was wondering if his approval does enhance the value of the coin? Thanks for any reply.

    Not crazy about the toning, as it kind of obscures the cameo contrast, but nice grade and designation.

    To me, his stickers are the CAC of cameo proofs, so yes, I'd pay more.

    I don't know. I discount his stickers because of the whole selling on TV thing. I wonder if it's a gimmick to sell more coins. Of all the sticker types, I would rank his last and I wouldn't pay up for it. Maybe the other forum members will educated me differently.

    Agree but it is a cool looking sticker. :D

    Stickers... we got stickers... we got lots and lots of stickers... :D Should be a song like that... ;) IMO...stickers are for perceived value at time of sale....and also add the necessary confidence factor for inexperienced buyers. Cheers, RickO

    Cool I love new stickers. Nice grade on the coin to

    At least from these pics, it doesn’t look at all like ‘exceptional cameo contrast’ ... especially not for a DCAM designated coin ...

    Now the sticker itself, that sticker does look to have an exceptional cameo.

    I swear I’m not trying to be snarky. Just honest.

    Honestly, looks like the coin was dipped before slabbing (without proper rinsing) and what you have now is the after effects of such.

    Just read this in a recent copy from Coin World. About their price guide. Can I assume their numbers are close to a reality price check? If so, maybe my purchase of this Kennedy can be very profitable? What do you guy's think? Sure, I do realize it all depends upon the buyer. Thanks .

    This price doesn't include the Tomaska sticker.

    I don't follow the Kennedy half market at all, but PCGS price guide for your 74-S is $15. PR70DCAM is about 100x that, so maybe submit it a few times... if you're feelin' lucky! :)

    That is a future considerable thought? Thanks.
