I am looking for either a website, or dealership that I can buy slabbed MS coins. As of right now, none of the dealers near where I live sell any Slabbed or high grade coins. They just throw a BU on there and sometimes they don't even look that good with a lot of toning and bag marks. I have even noticed a lot of "Mint Cello" coins having a lot of marks on them. I want MS 65+ Kennedy halves, since they are relatively cheap, I might as well build the best set I possibly can.

You may want to check out cheapslabs.com. I think you might find some reasonable Kennedy halves there. Otherwise, ebay is probably your best bet for slabbed Kennedys.

Beat me to it. By all means, start there than look around. I've gotten NGC slabs from them for uner 10. Thats a neat catagory sometimes. Get on their mailing list. They update often I get them every week or so.

Be careful with cheapslabs.com - they have some good prices, but there are quite a few coins out there that are not graded by a reputable Third Party Grader. Specifically, I see several out there by Numistrust Company (aka: New mis-trust - emphasis on the mistrust) that are known to grossly over grade their coins. Make certain that you know what you're buying and stick to PCGS or NGC. I think ANACS is decent also, but they do command a little bit less.

Thanks for all the help guys, I will check both but I believe that Slabbed coins will be the best to form my collection around. Most Mint Cello coins have tone and are normally banged up etc.

I was also going to recommend cheapslabs.com or ebay for 65+ JFK's.

If your gonna be busting these up for your Dansco, I would buy mint sets. Just be patient till you find ones that have good eye quality, then cherry pick the halves.

check out a coin show in your area.

Best place is at any coin show. Check out Google for coin shows in your area. Also, check out coin clubs since many also have coin shows but are not big enough to get on those coin show listings. Remember that at a coin show you can see exactly what your buying, no postage, no handling, no shipping, etc.
