As I mentioned last week, the Franklin We The People holders are quickly gaining the appreciation they deserve among collectors!

The feedback we’re receiving is incredible, with clients thrilled at the eye-appeal and quality of each coin in these holders. And I have to say- I personally think they look EVEN BETTER in these holders than the generic, white holders! Toned, Ultra Cameo, brilliant… it doesn’t matter; they POP like never before!

And now we have the KENNEDY holders here in our office, with the title "We choose to go to the moon” to commemorate his speech that launched our quest even further into space.

"But why, some say, the Moon? Why choose this as our goal? And they may well ask, why climb the highest mountain? Why, 35 years ago, fly the Atlantic? Why does Rice play Texas? We choose to go to the Moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard; because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills, because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone, and one we intend to win, and the others, too.”

President Kennedy was one of the most influential Presidents of our time with so many words that inspired America. We personally love this quote because it shows our choice as Americans to push ourselves to the next level, to expect more of ourselves as both individuals and, together, a nation. He inspired us to be more- to do more! And to take pride in ourselves as Americans in doing so.

And just as Kennedy inspired Americans decades ago to go above and beyond, we are stepping up our numismatic standards with these new Kennedy holders which feature lines from his speech with Apollo 11.

These holders will be primarily for coins up to 1989, since Proof production quality was nearly perfected in 1990. 1990 to present features a majority of examples with fully frosted ultra cameo devices and deep mirrors, although there are some "gaps” among the modern series where this holder will definitely fall into play. Much like certain years of the Eisenhower dollar where many Ikes are graded Deep/Ultra Cameo but in reality fail to meet even pre-modern standards, this occasionally happens with Kennedys in the modern era as well, and we will be utilizing this holder for those instances. As for Mint States, this will still be an important holder throughout all decades!

However the real cream of the crop will come with 1989 and older, as many of those examples are extremely hard to find in the finest condition. And just as with our  WTP holders, NGC will have a table on their website for the "Moon” population.

We are so thrilled to be adding to our elite selection of choice numismatic rarities! And I know you’ll love this holder just as much as WTP!

Speaking of which… the WTP pops on NGC are getting ready to launch, and we’ll make sure to let you know when they do!
