Just bought a 1951 Washington quarter today, tomorrow I'll pick up a '49 and a '52 (all proofs)

Need to find a '50 somewhere.


Anyway...
More Kennedy's came in today. 1999-S silver to 2009-S Silver
Back to photographing them and then to my Dansco albums..

Dearborn, Nice group of silver Kennedy's. Glad to see someone else collects these too. I am just finishing off my set of them too but I refuse to buy the 2010s-2020s clad proofs. I don't mind the premium for silver but I refuse to pay the premium for clad junk! Only one left that I need is the 2005s silver.

hey I just happen to have one of those it just came in today.

can't wait to see your collection once it is done!

But as for me, I'll buy the clads. (In fact I already did, just waiting for them to arrive.

1971-S - 2009-S PROOF Kennedy half dollar Clad Coins 38 Coins US Proof Sets for only about $3.60 per coin. It also includes the 1980-S Clad proof with a mintage of only 99,998.. I'm happy with the price..

Got this 1898 Proof Barber Half in the mail today. The coin is by no means a perfect example, it has a couple of nicks, but I am happy with it nonetheless.

Nice to have a Barber proof - I don't have any kind of old proof coin so I like them all. What do you think that black stuff is on the reverse?

I don't think so - wonder if that can be conserved?

Under a particular light angle, there is a ding just under the nose of Liberty. Like he has a dripping nose from having a cold.

NumisEd, many of the "purists" on this site probably wouldn't go for a details coin but I have to say that is a great Barber Half! Considering how worn most examples are, In my opinion to have anything with that much crisp detail is desirable. Congrats!

Dearborn, With those Kennedy halves, I too have the clad proofs from '71-2009 but have you seen the cost of the clads from 2010 up? $15 or more for clad junk, what a scam!

Ah! ok, I see what you are saying.. I have not looked into the '10's to date yet.. I'll have to look at that.. Right now I'm back filling all my holes I have and upgrading the ugly ones and very early proofs...
