possible clad
I recently ask a question about a silver kennedy. I called ngc and they said they would correct the mistake. iweighed them both in the ngc holders and the coin they marked as 1976s ms actually weighs less than the one marked silver... the silver in a ngc holder weighed approx. 51.99 grams.. the coin in question weighs 51.28 grams

1976s .50
I recently had a few kennedys graded.. They sent back my coins . What is the difference in the grades. one says 1776-1976 silver ms.. other coin says 1976s ms..which we know is silver why not put it on the label.. I attached a photo .

very funny story
I bought what I thought was going to be a mint set and paid $15.. when it got to my house I opened it and my first thought was were are the Denver set and then I noticed the stripe that is normally on the cello wasn't there.. well I looked a little closer and noticed the cameo.. I contacted the seller .. and let them know they had just sold a proof set instead of the mint set I wanted.. well still haven't gotten that mint set .. but the cameo was a nice surpise.. good hunting
I took the advice
hello I received my coins .. the franklins were icing on the cake.. I have been trying to figure out how to answer your replies.. I wanted to let you all know that .. I have also sent my first proof set in it is a 1963.. All of them came back pf66 or higher.. I thought this was cool. and the advice someone gave that it was alright to by already graded coins I took your advice and will only buy the ones I can't find.. and only pcgs or ngc.. thank you all
To see old co
that is the worst part
thanks to all who where giving me kind words and advice..I
have been patiently waiting for my coins to return from ngc...
some of my coins were graded by pcgs I bought these coins already graded the rest I have sent in myself....I recently purchased some nice proof sets that will be graded as well..
when I get my coins back I will get some photos.. Happy hunting

Ikes are hard to find in good condition
Hello fellow collectors
This is my first journal entry so be patient.i have started my ike collection from raw coins . I try not to buy them already graded.. I think finding them is half the fun. it is difficult to find quality coins for this collection.. so bear with me..
