  Russ's info is the most complete I have seen.
  
  When looking thru sets to cherrypick, it is easiest to look for the truncated I in LIBERTY. I've probably found about 20 sets over the last 4 or 5 years.

  I sometimes have trouble spotting the wishbone, so I usually go to the Bottom Left Serif of I in LIBERTY... though Russ says that doesn't always work, as some are not missing the serif, or the serif isn't as weak, or some Ferengi non-sense such as that

  I really wish to God- I could take close up picks- the serif in I is that of the AH, the rays on the reverse are broken- there are no contact marks at all both sides, the hair shows the Y cleanly- dammmmit. who wants to come over to my house and photo my frigging Kennedies?
  
  Now I'm nervous.

  Morganhunter - give 'em a quick dip in a weak dilluted ez-est solution and then rinse, then dip in acetone and air dry. This will neutralize the surfaces so as to prevent milk spotting in the future. You just got 'em out of the mint packaging, and they have been known to spot after being freed from their celophane packaging.
  
  Secondly, if you would like the coins photographed I can do it for you unless you're going to PCGS in which case you might just want to spring for the True View service.
