My very temporary moment in the sun - #1 Proof Kennedy Short set.
Won't be there long. As soon as the other full set owners notice there's now a short set, I'm history. Fun right now, though!

New collectors, please educate yourself before spending money on coins; there are people who believe that using numismatic knowledge to rip the naïve is what this hobby is all about.

The name preceded my involvement in this great hobby. It was a domain I registered for a site idea I had. Never did anything with it, so I made it in to a coin site and named my sets after it.

That set looks easy to put together with a little work and effort finding the right coins! I only have a few that would qualify and might try to slam you out of that spot!!
Great job Russ!!!!

Bigern,
Only if a bunch of the high powered full set owners take pity on me and don't register a short set before the deadline.

Jeff,
That's the cool thing about this set. It's one that anybody can complete without spending the mortgage money. There are quite a few Kennedy collectors who don't really care for the newer design, or don't want to spend the money to complete the full set.
Also, this is a unique type, since the half was the only coin that contained any silver for most of the years included in the set, and it's old enough that even a classic collector, who might not otherwise participate in any moderns, might give it a second look.
Lots of benefit to this little set.
