  I like those little holders... often times the cardboard really toned up those Kennedy's.

  Great find! I have that exact holder, but with no coin in it. I think I'll pick an uncirculated '64 up at the B&M next time I go and see how it tones.

  I would hope he would have been popular in France, after all, he is the one who accompanied Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy to Paris.

  It was in a box full of junk and at first I thought about accented hairs but then bought it because of the holder

  Accented hair is a proof only variety. This was a good purchase for 6 Euro.
