1974-D MS65 PL Kennedy

PocketArtPocketArt Posts: 1,335 ✭✭✭✭✭

For those of you who collect PL's- I thought I'd share this over here too. I got this back this week from ATS. I was very pleased, it's the only PL graded for year/mint. Not sure about ANACS- they may have one graded. I like all TPG's- I think they have their respected strengths, this is for the proof like people :p

    Very cool! Pre-1984 PL coins are much scarcer than the later dated pieces.

    It seems that all the business strike clads come from the Denver mint. Has anyone got a PL from Philly in clad?

    There are Philadelphia PL coins for the 90% silver and silver clad coins. Philadelphia normal clad coins do exist especially in the late 1980s and early 1990s. There were changes around 1984 to the way that the dies were prepared, which made PLs much more common. I have seen several P PL coins from the 1989-1991 range.

    P mint PL's aren't so tough but the 1974's are quite scarce in PL. Every denomination except the cent is scarce. Most '74-P PL's are only vaguely PL.

    Thanks all for kind comments!

    I've only found one 1974-P PL, and it is so chewed up on the obverse that it isn't worth sending in; maybe AU58. It's a shame really; the reverse is quite nice. I do have the '71-D, '72, '72-D in PL that I'll eventually send in. I have a '73-D PL that has a wheel mark that otherwise would be close to gem bu if not.... :( Brinks counting/wrapping machines are ruthless on coins.

    I think that of the Top III TPGers, only ATS utilizes PL on coins other than Morgan Dollars. Really nice Kennedy!

    ICG and ANACS have in the past. I have no idea whether they still do as I don't submit to them.

    Very nice. That's about as PL as you'll see in a 74-P from a mint set. Nice reverse, too.
