    Not a collector but many 64s and 65s.

    Those are nice. The recent ones from mint bags and rolls often look very scruffy.

    I have 3 Danscos and a set in the Registry. Kennedys are my 2nd favorite modern.

    Helping my oldest son with a Dansco album of Kennedys. The series is starting to grow on me after ignoring them for so long.

    Nice Kennedy halves.... I have an album, up to - I think - 2009... with DDO's and the TDR.... And several (not sure how many) AH's. Used to cherry pick them at shows with Russ... I have a bunch of rolls that I have not searched, mainly because they are bank rolls from four or five years ago that got put aside until I 'had time'... :D I will get to them. ;) That should drive a couple of our roll searching members a tad bonkers... :D Cheers, RickO

    Russ would have been proud of all the Kennedy's posted.

    Here's a more recent year where the low-relief portrait doesn't really look like Kennedy (IMHO!).

    Collect them in my Whitman blue folders. Now that they aren't circulating, I wish they'd just stop minting them altogether - - like Canada did with their cent............ :(

    I collect them as bullion. Since they don't circulate any more that's all they are good for.

    Started this last time looking for silver but have morphed into collecting this series form coin roll hunting. Having fun because they are easy for the eyes, unlike cents. I marvel at the strike quality or lack there of for different years from the early 70's to 2001. Cheers.

    I bought half dozen or slightly more NGC of these (various mints, dates 1968-69)) from my table at show for 40 pct ngc guide (his offer to me) then priced at cost x 2 good sellers moved quickly. They were really nice blazers like 1964-D pictured above.

    I thought you meant to sell for the silver content? :*
