Mitch Spivack

The 1980-P Kennedy Half Dollar is very common up to about MS65 condition. In MS66, it becomes a little challenging to find but you can still easily buy them at a small premium, if you can't find one in this condition. In MS67 condition it is scarce, yet, there are still hundreds of examples out there that one can be purchased with minimal effort. Somewhat surprisingly, after decades of PCGS grading nearly (800) examples of this coin in Mint State condition, these has only been a single specimen achieving the MS67+ grading threshold (and no examples known in MS68 condition).
