To Be Forewarned Is to NOT Be Forearmed

Some of you may remember a couple of posts I made about the teller at my bank whose boyfriend told her what coins she should be on the lookout for.

Same Teller, Different Tale

You may recall my post from Oct 2021 in which the teller mentioned that her boyfriend told her what half dollars to 'be on the lookout for' as she gave me a 1968S proof. https://www.treasurenet.com/threads/a-tale-of-one-teller.663735/ Today, same teller (still no Loomis boxes, btw), but I...

Another one slipped through the cracks.

Nice catch. Those are going for $12 ea. at Apmex. Clean it! It’s just a bullion coin now.

1964 Kennedy halves are worth $982.00 just at face value.

What are you on about creskol? Face value of a Kennedy is 50-cents. Not sure of melt value but they are $12 all day long at Apmex. I bought 200 for $2395. The 64 is the most common Kennedy half. 450 million made.

That's true, but 1964 of them is still equal to $ 982.00.

Okay, now I get it! Take a look at this 64.

That's quite high actually. You paid 23.95X face value. YOu can buy them for 21X face elsewhere. I used to buy from APNEX, but found most other dealers are cheaper for the same thing. FYI
