Kennedy prices atrificially inflated?

raycyca

Has anyone noticed the prices of PCGS graded Kennedys lately? For example: 1965 SMS 67Cam for $560 & $600 to the same person, 1972-D MS 67-$406, 1978-D MS 66-$105, 1990-P MS 66-$456 and yet a 1964 MS 67 sold for $456! Is someone trying to make a market by inflating prices? I know that in the last year they have not become that rare to warrent anywhere near those prices. I'm glad I've completed my set and have some spares! Am I the only one noticing? Are there any other "Registry" sets with price jumps that drastic? Just my 2 cents

High grade Ikes have increased like that, so have PR70 and MS70 coins. I think the registry effect has driven many finest know to very high numbers if the population is low relative to the demand.

Collector

would agree the registery set is contributing to some of the increase in prices...Im a proof collector and have watching the steady increase in the proof silvers...especially the 95 and 97......the 97 is going for 3 times the price it was last year.....but it is only what the market will bear....right now it is bearing a lot.....

After just watching a 1990 P MS 66 Kennedy go for 343.00 on E-bay will I just wondering this same thing myself. Looks like I have picked the wrong time to start collecting these in MS 66 but I will go on and if it gets to bad I do have my type set to work on.

It's not just the usual coins like the 70-D, or the 82 and 83 P,D. Higrade 1998's are $300+. Some of the market makers have decided this is the place to be. Some of these coins are $300+ with a total population graded of 250 coins out of millions minted. It'll be fun to watch. I think the savvy collectors are trying to identify the poor quality mintages now, and buy higher grade examples.

I have a white 88P in PCGS MS67 that I have been thinking about selling. Anyone know what a fair price would be in today's market?

I don't mind when someone bids because they need the coin. I've bid on some Kennedys and paid a high price at the time to get the coin, but, I NEEDED the coin. Some of those buying/bidding on the Kennedys today are those with complete MS 67 sets and they're bidding on MS 66 examples. Why? I have many spares but usually because I upgraded or bought lots of 2 or 3 of an MS 66. When I decide to get competitive again, I'll probably be one of those paying the going rate also but I met my goal: completing an MS and a proof Kennedy set graded by PCGS. Now I have to complete my first set-unslabbed Kennedy set in a folder. I'm about 75% complete on that one because I was drawn away by the PCGS sets.

There is a 91-P Kennedy up for bidding on Wednesdays' Teletrade auction.(PCGS MS-67)

joejoe2000

let play guess the the winnig bids of these 3 kennedys in wed tt auction (before juice)
91-P $550
94-P $200
96-D $60

The 96 was a nice looking example. I need the 91-p but won't be able to afford it.
it went for about 200 last year. pop 8 or 9. I'll make another bet they the pop on the 67
doesn't go up again this year.
