Welcome back!
Great time to get back into coins. Lots more neat stuff is affordable.
Here's a warning parable for coin collectors...
Russ passed away.
Buyers market for sure. Coins are cheap and seem to be getting cheaper, good time to ease back in the game.
The whole worlds off its rocker, buy Gold™.

Enhanced unc set? Reverse proof Kennedy? Gold Kennedy?!
Yep, plenty of new Kennedy Halfs released from 2014-2017...and most can now be bought under mint issue price.
FWIW the last show I went to dealers told me it's a buyers market.

Welcome back.
Ugh got the 64 accented hair, the 98 matte finish, and the 2012 silver proof. Thought I had a great set now with a gold one out there my set will never be finished lol
Scooter 25-Welcome to the forum. Lots of good info on here. May be a good time to snag a gold Kennedy and not get beat up like a lot of the early birds did at Chicago did. On this issue I am glad I waited, as I obtained a 70fs for a fraction of what the ones at the infamous Chicago release were going for.
Your set is whatever you want it to be, so the gold Kennedy isn’t a requirement. Plus many see it as separate from the main Kennedy set.
You can add all the special silver and clad issues from 2014 and the enhanced 2017 for much more modest prices ($25 or less for most...the 2014 reverse proof would likely be the only one that would cost more).
@scooter25....Welcome back.... You do not need the gold Kennedy for a set.... that is an extra - which, by the way, is going fairly reasonable in today's market. Good luck with your search and let us know how things are going. Cheers, RickO
