I made it to #1- Now down to #2

I know it is a new set listing and I won't stay there because there are better sets out there, But for today I have the #1 set of Kennedys Half Dollars.
Syl's Kennedys

A interestong thing about this set is that is titled a complete set. But it does not have a slot of the 1974-D DDO or the 1982 no FG coins. So It put my lower grade coins into the appable date slots. Also there is no ranking system in it yet so grading is by the assigned grade only. Added note, there are bonus for the early date proofs in cameo and deep cameo so there is a little ranking involved.

Congratulations.

It looks pretty impressive to me. I looked at only a few pictures but those were very good.

Congratulations becoming #1 in the complete Kennedy set registry. At any point in time, for any series, becoming #1 is quite a special achievement, and you deserve to be very proud. You have chosen what will probably become an extremely popular registry series. The best of luck to you as the attraction and attention of this series grows.

Awesome set. That's a lot of slabs!!!!
Not as many as there are in my #2 set of Washingtons.
Syl's Washingtons
Not always there with the highest grades but I do like the idea of coin sets. Still looking for two more in this one.

How are you #1 when the #2 set has a higher grade points? How did your set rating get higher than his?

Congratulations ! !

Congratulations!! You have a very nice set of coins there. I want to thank you for the pictures also. It's very time consuming and a lot of work. Most people don't bother. Its really nice to look at a top notch set and see something besides a list. Way to go!!!!

It could not have happened to a nicer guy!

LindeDad · July 24, 2005 1:26AM

Well that was short lived. Whoever has the "First Complete Set" got the 2005-D added and bumped me down. And his set must have some nice early proofs in it, because they are the only coins that have Cameo and deep Cameo bonus. For those of you that made comments on the images. Thanks and I am still trying to get better and truer pictures. Finally figured out the proof's, but working to get better on the bright MS coins. Looks like I have a project for the rest of the summer. Thanks for all the nice comments.

Congratulations!!
That is a really nice set. I bet you are really proud of it.
It's nice that you chose to share your set with the members of the Registry Set Forum rather than just having a "confidential" listing.

I made it to #1- Now down to #2
