Sorry to spam the board, I try not to do this too much.

As many of you know MS68 on a Ken is not an easy thing. This is a wonderful coin. I put quite a bit of emphasis on finding coins that had little or no marks on the shield and were perfect in all other respects.

Listed on Ebay at this link 2004-D MS68 POP 4 I made all 4 of the MS68's. It was a POP 0 yesterday. Also listed are MS67's from both the P and D mints. No reserve this is a true auction.

Here is a listing of all my auctions.

Been watching all of your coins since you listed them. My eBay search is set for MS68 Kennedy's, and there arn't that many that show up. I think I was the second of the eleven bidders you have so far.

I hate to sound ignorant.

Is a MS68 that is a 2004 that good? Seems to me like a MS70 in a current year would be more of a high grade? At the least a MS69 should be common?

Thanks for any education rather than flame.

For a business strike Kennedy, yes, MS68 is excellent. It is effectively the top grade you are going to see. Outside of the 1998 SMS, there is only a single coin in the entire series graded MS69. The mint doesn't handle these with kid gloves like they do commemoratives, and since it is a large coin it is very subject to nicks and dings.
