  • Neat info. Is it more or less than AH 1964 halves?

    I've been supplementing my Capped Bust Half purchases with Seated Liberty Halves lately.... Definately a challenging series, but fast becoming my favorite.

    Did you know that...

    Russ, Marty, and Ken combined own more Kennedy halves than the total number of seated dollars minted from 1836-1873?

    Did you also know that there are more Seated Halves graded in MS67 than there are for the 1964 and 1964-D Kennedys combined?

    The entire mintage of Franklin halves is also dwarfed by the single year Mintage (1964) Kennedies.

    Does this mean that MS67 Kennedys are rare or that MS67 Kennedys are rarely slabbed?

    It means they're rarely slabbed because they're rare. Between the two mints PCGS has graded 2873 examples in all grades with a total of 53 in MS67 and only one in MS68.
