    LW,

    I guess this kinda brings into question just what you consider "normal". image

    Look again, littlewicher, at that half. Don't see too many of those in 1964 proof sets. image

    New collectors, please educate yourself before spending money on coins; there are people who believe that using numismatic knowledge to rip the naïve is what this hobby is all about.

    kinda hard to tell from the fuzzy pic but it looks to be 1962 set.

    Ooops! Sorry about that, Russ. Bids are pretty low so far. Probably, everyone's afraid of what they may actually receive.
    I was considering putting it on my snipe list, but I still haven't determined if the Kennedy "Long-Hair" is a recognized variety.

    I cant read the dates enough to know.. is it really the plain ol' 62 or some tremendous goof '64? Or am I the tremendous goof? (1962 model by the way image ) Kris

    If you look at their other auctions, you'll see they used the same pic for the 62 as for the 64 set.
