Just how many does RUSS have? The winner is???

eminem · November 25, 2002 5:54AM

I was doing a search for 1964 proof kennedy halves and 1964 proof sets. So compucheap bids on virtually every one. So riddle me this ....Does Russ collect anything else or does Russ have 50 % of all the 64 proof and AH kennedy halves. Everyone please post your guesses....I say he's got 50 AH's and 200 proofs.

Ok Russ the time has come to crown the victor!!! Let er rip!!!

Russ · November 25, 2002 5:56AM

Am I allowed to guess?

Russ, NCNE

IndianHeadMan · November 25, 2002 5:59AM

there's a post on this a while back..... but don't feel like searching so.....

200 working boys

&

100 proofs
w/ 40 AH

presleyh · November 25, 2002 6:03AM

I dont know how many he has but i think he has single handedly increased the price of 1964 proof sets on ebay by about 50%.

eminem · November 25, 2002 6:18AM

Russ as the originator of this thread I hereby decree that you shall not post your totals until the 20 guess mark is hit. Then you shall send 1 of your worst specimens to the one who is closest to the exact total of each. Let it be so!!

remumc · November 25, 2002 6:43AM

43 AH's and 273 proofs?

LucyBop · November 25, 2002 6:47AM

Just as long as he sticks with Kennedys, so be it.

eminem,

Your timing could not have been more perfect. I actually have a dog Accented Hair that I was planning to give away in a contest. Deal!

KlectorKid · November 25, 2002 9:48AM

50 AH's and 270 reg's

Russ · November 25, 2002 9:48AM

BTW, I wonder if he means slabbed only, or total including raw? Only 1964, or the entire series?

Russ, NCNE

Placid · November 25, 2002 9:48AM

Many 30ah, 85 reg proof, 40 business.

abmluce · November 25, 2002 10:03AM

47 ah, 176 1964 reg.

presleyh · November 25, 2002 10:05AM

Ok, I think he means only 1964, including raw and slabbed. So, Im guessing 124 proofs and an additional 36 ah proofs-all1964.

zenny · November 25, 2002 3:51PM

lets see current pops are 8398 proof, 738 ahs......

10% of each would be 840 and 74.....

hmmmm

i think he really likes those ahs.......

84 proof, 74 ah proof?

LucyBop · November 25, 2002 6:04PM

I'm gonna say he has more accented hairs cause thats more of the prize, so how bot 55 ac's and 25 regulars....

eminem · November 25, 2002 7:48PM

Surely everyone has a guess when the prize is a dog-meat 64 JFK.

GaCoinGuy · November 25, 2002 9:33PM

Okay, I'll venture a guess......53AHs, 212Proofs,

darktone · November 25, 2002 9:42PM

25 AH's and 75 proofs. I see people on the "Price Is Right" that win with low guesses

Gilbert · November 25, 2002 10:05PM

I dont know how many he has but i think he has single handedly increased the price of 1964 proof sets on ebay by about 50%.

Don't know about the percentage, but he has had to have had an impact on the "trend" value.

wallstreetman · November 26, 2002 4:33AM

First rule of investing, never put all your eggs into one basket, DIVERSITY is the key! You can call it collecting if you want, but your still investing your money! Nobody likes to lose!

tjkillian · November 26, 2002 4:42AM

He must have over 100 by now. I'm STILL looking for a PCGS AH one myself.

eminem · November 26, 2002 7:47AM

We are up to 17 actual guesses and a few amusing comments so I figure Russ should come clean any time now.....Remember Russ only the 64 proof and AH proof kennedy halves slabbed and raw. If there are too many to count you can give us your best guess.

eminem · November 26, 2002 7:58AM

Russ are you selling this to corner the market on 64 proofs and 64 AH proofs??? I need cash for my 64's

bgman · November 26, 2002 8:26AM

33 AH
145 Proof

Thanks for the chance,

Randy

Russ · November 27, 2002 2:44AM

eminem,

Do you have enough guesses yet? It's your contest. I'm just an innocent bystander.

Russ, NCNE

RLinn · November 27, 2002 4:18AM

I say Russ has
38 AHs
62 proofs

DRG · November 27, 2002 4:23AM

alright is it one more guess?

74 total
28 AH

KlectorKid · November 27, 2002 4:23AM

<< Russ should come clean any time now >>

i think its time Russ

PhillyJoe · November 27, 2002 4:56AM

Russ,
I'm sending you this PM because naturally I can't vote since we discuss these all the time.

Two questions. Are your 1,463,476 proofs still in that downtown warehouse? Regarding your 3,847 slabbed '64s are you including the set of 52 currently for sale?

So far, these guys aren't even close; but we'll just keep this our little secret.

Joe

Rover · November 27, 2002 5:08AM

43 AH, 75 proofs

Dan

JLW · November 27, 2002 5:20AM

OK Russ,
Come clean, how many?
Joe

Russ · November 27, 2002 5:45AM

I'm not sure I'm supposed to answer yet, since it's Eminem's contest. If he doesn't get here soon, though, I will.

Russ, NCNE

Bear · November 27, 2002 7:30AM

The bear has devined with the wood spirits and the answer is 57 AH and 491 Proof Kenedy Half

Dollars. This answere includes all the JFK that Russ has in tubes that did not make the grade.

For my just reward I would like a large bowl of berries with heavy sweet cream and sugar.A large spoon to eat with

would be appreciated. Hungry Bear

eminem · November 27, 2002 7:47AM

It has been a spirited contest but all good things come to an end so I'll bump this to the top and let RUSS the magnificent 64 JFK collector crown the victor!!

Russ · November 27, 2002 7:51AM

eminem,

You get to crown the victor, I'm just posting the totals.

Accented Hair:

28 slabbed, 10 raw, total of 38

Regular:

35 slabbed, 21 raw, total of 56

Once the contest master announces the winner, said winner PM me with your address.

<< This answere includes all the JFK that Russ has in tubes that did not make the grade >>

Bear,

Those just get sold off as each tube gets filled up.

Russ, NCNE

Bear · November 27, 2002 7:57AM

Russ -Does this mean I dont get my bowel of berries?

smprfi · November 27, 2002 8:21AM

<< 37 ah 52 reg >>

This looks to be the closest.

ANACONDA · November 27, 2002 8:23AM

So, about how many other collectible coins do you, Russ have?

adrian

DCAMFranklin · November 27, 2002 8:35AM

Pardon me for interrupting your class this evening Mrs. Coinboard. However, EVP and Tradedollarnut just called. Seems there was a big, angry snake waiting for Russ outside the 2-cent piece class today and they are afraid he may show up at your Kennedy Half class. You had better keep Russ from going out to recess today. Thank you.

Bear · November 27, 2002 9:08AM

I think that Russ has got to have a couple of thousand JFKs stashed in the basement.

Maybe he is just getting senile and forgot about them.

eminem · November 27, 2002 9:12PM

Maulumall wins the prize.....please e'mail Russ with address.

Just how many does RUSS have? The winner is???
