Did anyone get their 2006 set? Both of my halfs have a hugh scratch or it looks like some one carved a line into the neck of kennedy. Does anyone else have that type of problem with thier coins from the mint?

    The Denver mint Kennedys have those pesky scratches just like last year. I think they are being packaged by Gorilla industries again. They need to come to Philly to learn how it's done. They haven't been very good on the halves since the 90's.
    You only live life once, enjoy it like it's your last day. It just MIGHT be!

    That's typical. The upper half of the shield on the reverse of the Kennedy is also often scrapped up. Poor quality control as per usual.

    I have seen the shield issues on Denver half dollars, but not the obverse scratch.
