2003-D 50C MS68 认证号90069667, PCGS号6785

First 03-D MS 68 graded! Sorry Richard, I’m keeping this one. This is how I met Richard Green. When he found out that I had made this coin he tried to buy it because it was a pop 1 coin. When I didn’t sell it to him, he bought two PCGS graded 2003-D Kennedy’s in both ms 68 and ms 67. When he got them he thought the ms 67 coin was just as good as the ms 68 coin, he resubmitted it to PCGS. He was rewarded with his second ms 68 coin. He sold this spare coin and that was the last of the 2003 D Kennedy’s that was graded as ms 68. Since then he and I bought/sold/traded about 100 Kennedy half dollars. Richard was not a fan of toned Kennedy’s and this is why he sold me his “ spare “ 1964-D Kennedy in ms 67 along with a few other toned Kennedys. Plus he didn't want the varieties, so he basically GAVE me all the varieties he had, some graded and some raw! He gifted me the toned 1988 D in PCGS ms 67 that’s in my current set. One of these days I hope to develop the skills/knowledge to take a photo of each coin that actually captures the true colors and appearance of the coin.

The 2003-D Kennedy Half Dollar did not get issued for circulation. Therefore, the mintage was relatively small compared to most coins in the series. Most examples have been preserved in Gem condition that up to about MS66 examples are very affordable. In MS67 they become very scarce. In MS68 or higher they are rare and very difficult to find.
