I have a number in my head, I have looked at it under 10x as well, picture do show up stuff naked eye does not, but lets see? The finger print is on the flip, not the coin   Its going in today! mlgdave |

Wow. I'm not going to attempt a grade - I've literally never tried to grade a Kennedy - but it seems certain that this one will come back with a grade which justifies the slab. I'm calling that number MS66 or better.

I thought it was a proof coin until I noticed the mintmark

That is a nice one, I am going to say MS66. I think I see one small mark to the right of the mouth. Almost looks like it could be Proof-like. Did you get that from a mint set?

The fingerprint in the hair could cause problems in the future.

MS66 looks like a nice one for sure. If it goes MS67 (which it looks like to me) then you've made a small fortune out of a common coin, good luck, but I don't think I could call it MS67 without it being in hand, PCGS has graded 31 in MS67 and almost a thousand in MS66, chances are unlikely but one never knows!

Very cool score, how were they stored when you bought them? Rolls, individual flips, bagged? That is a lot of halves to go through. Not that I would mind, but it would take some time. I'd probably set up a table and start putting them in various groups as I scanned through them quickly, low end to higher grade ones, then go back to the higher grade stacks and go through those with more time. Fun work!  Cant wait to hear your grade  "Buy the Book Before You Buy the Coin" - Aaron R. Feldman - "And read it" - Me 2013!

Hmm... I too, am not that good at Kennedy's but without seeing the actual luster I'd say no more than 65.
