1965 SMS KENNEDY NGC MS 67 CAMEO- Aspiration
ULTRA CAMEO OBVERSE! This stunning 1965 has upgrade potential! Kennedy is smothered in the heaviest frost to appear on a 1965 SMS and boasts pitch-black mirrors that look like they belong on a proof! The reverse is a fully frosted, snow-white cameo. This is a great coin for the collector who really appreciates the real rarity and difficulty finding early strike and heavily cameo contrasted condition. SMS coins were not individually handled as the proofs were but were instead dumped into coin bins- similar treatment as commercial strikes. As a result, virtually ALL SMS Kennedy halves have bag marks! However this example offers clean surfaces for superb eye-appeal and condition quality.
