Has anyone found a 2007 Kennedy yet?

[65gt350]

I was wondering if anyone has found a 2007 yet?

I just looked at the production numbers and with 4.8M of them being minted so far shouldn't we start seeing them soon?

I read one post where someone has but can't locate it.

Would depend if they have released them for general circulation yet.

 

[goldinmypan]

No, but I found 8 2006Ds in my last box.

 

[bigtime400]

4.8 million?? is that P and D?? That seems high as of late. BTW.... where do you find those numbers?

 

[RaptorSE]

2006's are starting to appear frequently. Got 3 of them Thursday, with one being
an S-proof.

Im sure 2007 will pop up before long, if not already.

The 1995's are sure out in full force though LOL.... at least 2-3 per roll.

The newest date that I've come across is a 2000. What about anyone else?

 

[Fropa]

2004 is the most recent for me.

 

[Immy]

Haven't found anything newer than 2005.

 

[Capefearsman]

2000 for me

 

[dlindsay]

A bunch of 2004's

 

[silvershark]

2005 proof for me.

My latest is a 2005 P. Is there any reason we are holding on to these?

 

[fiatboy]

2004 for me. Anything that's not silver I release back into the wild. I know others will appreciate them more than me. and fwiw, i've had difficulty selling the proofs I've found that show any sign of wear.

Since '02 halves weren't released for general circulation, only as part of proof or mint sets; and a much lower amount were minted.

Hence the lower frequency they are found .....and kept.

If you are only keeping them because you believe they were only released as part of proof or mint sets then you are misinformed.

They were released in mint BAGS and in ROLL form as well which Is why so many are being found,If they were all broke out of sets we would see very few of them,about as often as proofs.

When I used to get boxes I would find '02-'06 at a ratio of about 40:1 with proofs and about 50:1 with silver.

I saved them for a while until I started noting how often they turned up and how much cash I had tied up in them and when I went to several dealers to try and make a little profit,none of them would buy over face value so I just turned them back in to get more coins to search.

The reason they gave was lack of interest in there customers and the fact that they couldn't pay me more than face and still make a decent profit IF and WHEN they actually sold one.

If someone has a LARGE sum of money to have tied up in these to sit on their shelf and still be able to buy more coins to search than more power to them but I never have that much cash at any one time Just realize that if your expecting to make a profit off of these it will probably be many years down the road.

Just trying to make sure everyone knows the facts about different coins,at least the facts that I can confirm.

Hey schramm,

You bring up a good point but are a little off. Recent Kennedy halves are released in bags and rolls, but NOT into general circulation. They must be purchased through the Mint at a premium, and can't be obtained from your local bank. As such, I must say they are more rare than earlier Kennedys that were released to banks.

Does anyone know what year was the last for Kennedys in general circulation??

Kennedys were last minted for circulation in 2001. The same is true for Sac dollars.

 

[thurmownator]

Does anyone know what year was the last for Kennedy's in general circulation?? sc

Kennedy's were last minted for circulation in 2001. The same is true for Sac dollars.

..............and the minted volumes of the post '01 halves (only 2-3M from each year/mint) warrant their keeper status.

I got a 2006s Proof a few months back...that is my most recent.
