    That sir would be one very slippery slope. EVERY SINGLE VARIETY imaginable would be mind boggling. Honestly who in their right mind cares about any and every minuscule nuance?
     

    Generally speaking, and I’m not saying it’s you, people today want to claim a variety on everything and want it to be rare so they can have a valuable coin. They don’t want to put the time and effort into building a collection to be proud of, they want to hit it rich out of the gate. That’s not the way it works and will never be the way it works. If that ever becomes the case this hobby is dead. Plain and simple. 

    My Kennedy, lonesome dove collection speaks for itself

    I bet you can’t say that description 3 times fast…..

     

  2. There are numerous varieties with very few examples known! I would have had to find this example in the same run, which I did not! I'm sure there maybe other examples.that have not been found. Ana governor Michael Ellis found it very interesting ( at the national money show)  and thought I should submit it to coneca.I just thought maybe someone else had some input into the straight G and the split G.

  3. Here is another anomaly. This is a 1964 proof 69 straight G, broken G, with ddo and ddr. Very unique! Of the tens of thousands of Kennedy proofs I've gone through I've never seen anything like it. I'm on the road now, and don't have any of the ddo ddr pics. I'll make a note to send you at another time. You will notice the doubling on F G.

    This question arose several years ago, and I consulted with James Wiles (VarietyVista) about the MS striking of the Type 1 Reverse. He told me that it's not rare. In fact, the proof edition is not rare either, but it forms a minority of the proofs and is popular. The same can't be said for the MS version.

  5. I have a ms 67 1964 d type 1 reverse straight G with broken rays that is an obvious type 1 proof reverse. NGC recognizes the proof type1 straight G reverse, why not the Ms version when it's recognized in the coneca Master listings?  This coin can be viewed in my lonesome dove collection, 1964 to present, circulation and proofs, including varieties. 

  6. I have the coin in my competitive coins, but it will not transfer to my competitive sets ngc5903092014 1964-to present complete Kennedy including varieties, lonesome dove collection

  7. Trying to add ngc 5903092014 qdr fs-802 Kennedy to my lonesome dove collection 1964 to present complete (including varieties) but there is no slot for it. Can you help?
