| 2002 and later if someone does not correct me. Also, I 1987s were never intended for circulation either. |

I did some poking around on the internet and found this.................
the 2002 through 2007 halves were not intended for circulation. They were sold only in sets. Some people have broken the sets to get the "S" mintmark coin, and let the other coins go back to the bank. |

| Davis looks like he nailed it! I have found a few in roll searching, but the conditions were quite circulated so not worth much more than face value. |

rhe redbook has the mintage figures.
I save these and anything with a mintage under 15 million. the latter is not worth anythign today, but I might as well save them instead of returning to the wild. I have a little tackle box tray I use as a sorter and when a compartment gets filled I roll it and marke the year on the outside. I might put away ten bucks a week this way. Not for everyone but if you are going to save you might as well save interesting years. |

Good post Davis and thank you. Now I am wondering how many 2001p have slipped through my fingers. |

Mintage #'s for NIFC Kennedy halves:
For what its worht, 78, 82, 86, 88, and 99 all had less mintage than that 2001 NIFC. That doesn't make the NIFC any easier to find, but just puts the numbers in perspective. |

My dealer was mentioning something about 82 and 83 if I remember correctly. I will have to ask for some clarification... He asked if I searched for those also when searching boxes.

I pulled a roll of '01P from my sorting last night.
Even though there were a lot minted I'll add it to my NIFC set(s).
The mint's selling bags of '09's now. |

For those of you saving NFIC halves...
The only thing collectors will be concerned with in 20 years is condition and mintage. Those 2001-Ps, while technically have NFIC status, don't have the low mintages to command numismatic value in future decades. |

largely tru, but rarity is another aspect, but it can cut both ways.
a coin with a large mintage that is hard to find might have high collector value. But as long as whitman doesn't include NIFC in its books then people may not seek those out as they don't "count."
For example, my whitman book has a stub for 1970-d but slots for both 87's. Stub means there is a cardboard coin there and an indication its NIFC, but not for 87. |

| Its like the 08 halves.. They have a final mintage of 1.7 million minted... People are saying well i am not going to buy any of them even though so little were minted b/c they are NIFC... they might not make the quick profit like some b/c not as much demand right now... But i think down the road There will be a demand for them b/c there will be more than 1.7 million Kennedy collectors that are gonna want to buy a coin from my roll.. |
