Mitch- For sure that 1966 Kennedy in MS67 is NOT a mislabeled "SMS", right?!

wondercoin · April 20, 2003 2:53PM

"Mitch- For sure that 1966 Kennedy in MS67 is NOT a mislabeled "SMS", right?! "

Pat: Now wouldn't that be embarrassing - some have held me out as among the foremost authorities on 1965-1967 coinage (vis a vis SMS issues) and for me to peddle an SMS coin hiding out in a regular issue holder!! I can think of one board member in particular who would have a FIELD DAY with that one!!!

I am as close to 100% confident as one can be in offering this coin out as a regular issue. While I did not grade the coin personally and bought it on the open market, the coin appears to me to be a "no brainer" regular issue piece. If it was questionable, it would not have been offered here, but, rather, returned to PCGS for their assessment (which is what I did recently when I bought a complete set of clad Wash quarters and spotted that the 1965 "regular issue" was really an SMS - and it was thereafter changed).

i had someone a youngewr collextor ask me a question and mayne you guys can amswwr it for me as this younger collector is collecting modern coins

he wanted to know what would be the retail selling price for a

2000 p roosie graded ms 67 pcgs ngc

2000 p lincoln cent red ms 67 pcgs ngc

thanks

sincerely michael

wondercoin · April 20, 2003 3:18PM

Michael: Those (2) coins have value basically in MS68 and higher grades. I personally would sell either of the coins you mention in PCGS-MS67 at roughly $10/coin, but, I usually get them in MS68 only (and they are not worth substantially much more even in MS68 grade)

Hope that helps.

Wondercoin

michael · April 20, 2003 3:22PM

yes that helps thanks

i try to help some younger kids at a junior coin club and they basically love all the modern coins and are interested in them and starting to put together sets

they are young under 14 so to them they are starting and to them silver kennedys are older classic coins

but i see many of the younger kids like the salbbed coins in higher grades all the moderns and they like the new mihnt producyts the buff dollars and as such

so i will tell this kid if he is going to buy one stick with 68 or higher
and i will let him know the oprices thanks

as they ask me things i cant answer and i want them to collect what they want they have to start somewhere

as these collectors hopefully will keep collecting and advance more in the up and coming years in coins

sincerely michael

braddick · April 20, 2003 4:08PM

Mitch- I was just playing with you a bit. I know with all the talk of the SMS/MS 69 1994 Jeffersons floating out there and all.

There are four Dealers I trust explicitely with these "SMS's" vs "MS" counterparts. Jim Barlow; Rick Tomaska; CladKing and you. I'm sure there are others, but you four are the first I'd turn too.

I'm getting better at it myself, but the last 'batch' I sent in I missed on all three of them.

wondercoin · April 20, 2003 4:13PM

Pat: Thanks. I would trust those guys as well (although I have never seen cladking offer out any SMS/regular issue coins).

BTW, were you 100% jazzed when the 54(p) quarter in MS66 came in?

Wondercoin

braddick · April 20, 2003 6:24PM

Absolutely STUNNED. It's a killer. I would think it's AT/Peacock if it wasn't in a PCGS holder (seriously!).

Neat coin. I'll show it too you along with a couple of other toned Washingtons I've picked up over the last month or so.

We just picked up a second computer for upstairs and my digital camera is put away otherwise I'd have shot a photo or two by now.
Thanks for asking.

cladking · April 21, 2003 12:15AM

You may be thinking of Cladmaker. I don't sell much stuff at premium to wholesale.

braddick · April 21, 2003 3:43AM

You're right, I was. That's on me.
(But, CladKing- you CAN spot the difference between the two, right?)

cladking · April 21, 2003 4:13AM

I've never seen one that I wasn't pretty sure except a few in AU (or lower). If I'd seen those
AU's before they had wear there might be some question. There was a lot of variation in the
production of the SMS coins and some worn SMS dies were used to strike coins for circulation.

Above MS-65, I suppose there's little doubt.

wondercoin · April 22, 2003 2:01AM

Cladking: Actually, above MS65, there is great doubt in some cases. Keep in mind that a spectacular regular issue specimen (great strike, luster, appeal) can start to take on an appearance of an average quality SMS coin. Do you see what I am talking about? Wondercoin

cladking · April 22, 2003 3:12AM

I've never seen a coin from a roll that even approaches the quality of an SMS
coin. I've heard enough reports that I don't necessarily doubt their existence,
but I've never seen one. There are far more coins in circulation that have the
SMS look for them all to be from busted SMS sets. A very high percentage are
from dies worn beyond what SMS dies were typically used. Many of the SMS dies
recieved at least part of the proof treatment including basining.

The preparations of the dies and planchets were so diverse during these years
that I'd be hesitant to call any coin in any grade definitively SMS or non-SMS. In
very high grades though it seems far more likely to make the right guess. There
is a distinct look to most of the SMS coins and the nicest regular issue coins that
I've seen tend to have a different distinct look. Though again, I've never seen a
very high grade non-SMS of any denomination. (Maybe a few halfs)

I shouldda spent more time looking at rolls. I am primarily interested in quarters,
and clad rolls of these are very difficult to find and usually a disappointment.

wondercoin · April 23, 2003 1:09AM

"The preparations of the dies and planchets were so diverse during these years that I'd be hesitant to call any coin in any grade definitively SMS or non-SMS."

Cladking: As you know, after you have reviewed hundreds and hundreds of high grade specimens, you begin to recognize the texture to the surfaces which differentiates SMS quarters from non-SMS specimens. No question, for all but the most dedicated MS clad quarter collectors, a beautiful 1965-1967 SMS coin in high grade will suffice for the type set, etc. , as the distinction on an MS67 regular issue and an MS67SMS can be so subtle.

Good thing Lucy doesn't read the Registry Forum or you'd be in big trouble

LucyBop · April 28, 2003 9:19AM

HeHe...

I do, and that 58d can come to Momma!

wondercoin · April 28, 2003 11:02AM

Craig: Yes it is!! I knew you would absolutely love it. I actually have a wonderful colorful 1937(p) in my set compliments of Don Dolga. It is just as neat in its own way and, as you know, I do try to retain the special coins of former Registry "players" wherever possible. But, let's face it, the one I shipped you is as nice a color coin for a 1937(p) quarter as I have seen! The simply do not come colorful and high grade as a rule.

The 37(d) in PCGS-MS67 matches the 37(p). We should talk about what you have in that slot - there might be a possible deal.
