    A pic of your inverted S '68-S proof half is on p. 62, and well as a few words about your find.

    Bring your copy of the article to Denver, and I hear the Mad one will sign it for you. Be sure to have your marker ready for him- cap off.

    Marty - If you're talking about the 1946S cent, it was first discovered and published by a member of my forum. You can browse it at www.coppercoins.com/forum. Not sure exactly where in the forum it is, but the discoverer goes by 'wavysteps' there.

  • I read it on CONECA, though!

    July 12, 2006 -- Marty Kuklinski of Northern Illinois reports finding four 1968-S proof sets containing the rare Kennedy Half dollar with an inverted Mintmark. He's been searching for them ever since he read the report on them in the PCGS Library in 2002 and has looked through thousands of sets before encountering these. The variety was first reported by Joe W. Crowder of Tennessee who first noticed them in the year of issue but said nothing until 1997. The variety was first publicized in articles appearing in Numismatic News, Coin World and Collectors Universe ( PCGS Library) from 1997 through 1999 and later in follow up articles in Coin World. In each case when I wrote about the original find, I expected there to be many more reported. However, such was not to be the case! Up until now, only two additional finds had been reported! At this point we now have a total of 11 reported. That is an average of just one find per year since they were first reported! Where are they all? KP
