Breen said 1%. Others say as much as 3%. So, the range would be 40,000 to 120,000 coins. I think those estimates are low, and it's more like 5%, or 200,000 coins.
Russ- so how many examples do you have in your collection?
One.
Only one?? How can you have just one?? When I become fascinated with a certain issue, I usually end up having multiple examples, like a true hoarder...
My style is impetuous, my defense is impregnable !

They were made until Mrs Kennedy nixed the portrait and they had to change the dies; about 7 -10 days worth of production made it out of Philadelphia.
Many have now found their way home.
