  • I saw your post Russ and saw these had the zip on them and think they might actually be sealed. I was going to buy from this auction but I think there is no zip on them and how can 1 person have 350 plus sets. Linky

    Hopefully there will be something great in at least one. I will settle for some more pretty nickels.

    Lori,

    In the other auction you linked he's also selling the earlier years, and I can't tell if that's what he has pictured. Prior to 1964, they wouldn't have the zip code. However, being the cynical cuss that I am, I'd also be wary of that auction. Those envelopes look way too "fresh".

    Lori, 64 is a good year for proof sets. Lot's of fun things are to be found. Good luck with the sets, and remember, flying under radar in this group is pretty tough.image

    Lori,

    I believe I just received a nice coin from you recently. Just picked up that 1887 Morgan in MS-65 at the post office - nice golden color too. I guess the color (and coin) bug has bitten you too. image

    Your sniping skills are estimable, Lori! Congratulations!!image

    I agree with Russ, the envelope on the other looks too new. At the very least, I'd want to see a scan of the other side.

    If any of those Kennedy's have funny looking hair sent them this way they are defective!!!image
    It is not exactly cheating, I prefer to consider it creative problem solving!!!

  • I picked up a funny hair kennedy image on ebay in a NTC slab, cheap. Did not say AH. Do they not do that?

    Lori,

    NTC does designate the variety, but if the submitter doesn't note it on the submission form it won't happen. Same thing with PCGS.

  • I am using this picture from ebay. Isn't this a AH Kennedy? I thought yes. But then again I am most likely wrong with that as I am with my AT detecting skills.

    Lori
  • That's definately AH.

    Yep, it's an AH and it was on my snipe list, but got above the max I was willing to go.
