MS-63 with a possible (*) for outstanding eye appeal.

Not sure what's going on with that silvery streak on the back. That would hold it to MS-62 for me.

It's AU Details which probably nets out to VF-EF type value. Not sure why they assigned a number to it.

Toning is at worst neutral on this one and may actually carry a premium due to the reverse being rather striking. Slab it as is and you'll get full price, or possibly more, when you sell it. I like the coin. Increasing collectors like original toning not "blast white".

Wholesale is about $35. About $25 of that is melt value so you're looking at a market numismatic value of about $10. It's not really appropriate for a dealer to slap more than 3-5% on top of melt but 20% premiums for numismatic value are common so I think a price around $40 would be reasonable if a bit high. Anything over $40 is IMHO a ripoff for something that is mostly a bullion coin.

NGC did in fact grade this one MS-65. Thanks for the opinions. My opinion on the coin in hand, the photos don't quite do it full justice, is it's MS-66.

Picked up this beauty yesterday. NGC holder. MS-68 reverse first so everyone can gawk at that before getting to the obverse which limits the final grade.

It's about $385 wholesale so be ready for someone to outbid you. If you actually get that price that's fantastic - you could quickly flip it.

Advice for folks is to post your coins for grading so the collectors here can weigh in. They get you very close - usually within one or two on the numeric 0-70 scale. The apps in my experience are all over the place and are seldom accurate.

Yes minimal numismatic value but it's a 40% silver JFK so melt is $4.47. Not bad for an acquisition cost of $0. There were also three US quarters in the reject bin but none were silver.

PCGS holder. MS-62. Just about the best luster I've ever seen on a coin of this grade. So brilliant it was a challenge to get photos. Dealer had an 1892-CC in MS-61 that was similar condition but the price point was a bit high on it.
