Most 1983-S Proof Kennedy Half Dollars were struck in great quality. Finding examples in PR68-PR69 Deep Cameo should be the norm. Perfect PR70 Deep examples are scarcer but with enough searching one can be found with minimal efforts.

Rarity and Survival Estimates Learn More

Grades	Survival Estimate The Survival Estimate represents an average of one or more experts opinions as to how many examples survive of a particular coin in three categories: 1) all grades, 2) 60 or better, and 3) 65 or better. These estimates are based on a variety of sources, including population reports, auction appearances, and personal knowledge. Survival estimates include coins that are raw, certified by PCGS, and certified by other grading services.
