Couldn't capture the contrast on the reverse.
I've looked threw lots of SMS sets, this is the first Cam SMS Kennedy I have ever found.

    Very nice - great snag.

    I knew the instant I saw the top quarter portion of the coin (Kennedy's hair and the surrounding field) that it was a 1967.

    Nice coin by the way. Tell us your thoughts as you first saw the coin and spent a few seconds checking out the front and back with a loupe. It is always nice to have your search efforts bear fruit.

    Nice. It's pretty clean too.

    It's hard to believe that's a mint state coin, isn't it?

    Very strong example. That obverse is exceptional, and the reverse not too far behind.

    When I first saw the coin, it just jumped out at me. Like Cladking said, it looks just like a modern proof coin. I had a hard time keeping my best poker face when buying it. image

    Sounds like Russ likes it.
    Well this Kennedy will be vacationing in Newport Beach this summer.

    Good looking coin, nice mirrors...what is up with the area around the jaw? Damage or just overemphasized frost fade?
