I had a laminated cardboard "Kennedy and Lincoln Interesting Facts" card I was given a few decades ago. It included a '64 Kennedy half and a 10k gold miniature Lincoln Cent. I decided a while back to remove the coins from the holder as it had deteriorated quite a bit, and while the obverse of the Kennedy half looked ordinary, the reverse had some colorful toning. It's actually far more vibrant in hand than the picture shows. Not really worth more than melt, but I found the reverse colors interesting.   |

If I saw the coin on ebay, I'd be bidding a ways into two digits. Really like it. Love old cardboard coin holders/displays. |

Agreed, I would assume this would bring in a premium

Looks certainly worth more than mint to me. Lovely piece.
