Roller42 Valued Member United States 134 Posts	Posted Yesterday 7:15 pm I have been searching some half dollar boxes and I'm finding lots of 2024 P BU Kennedys and a few 2024 D. The 2026 and 2027 Red Book list those as NIFCs, even though the combined mintage for 2024 P&D is over 37 million. That's 10 X the mintage of most NIFCs. I can't imagine they sold that many to collectors. I thought it might be a mis-print in the 2026 Red Book, but it's there again in the 2027 Red Book. Am I missing something? Maybe I should roll them up. Littleton is selling them for about $50 a roll. I'd love to sell them a bunch at $25! "I like money. I can't believe you like money, too. We should hang out."

During this period the coin could be found in mint sets or purchased from the Mint in rolls and bags, at a premium above face value. Starting in 2021, the Federal Reserve resumed ordering these coins for general circulation. Report this Post to the Staff
