I think I bought this coin about a year ago
Local market in Novi Sad, there was a bit of haggling and stretching.
I went around the counter three times
And only on the third try did I manage to agree on a price
They say third time is lucky here (treca sreca )
It's a half dollar with Kennedy.
He is one of the most famous American presidents, if not the most famous
As a child in this part of the world, I also heard about Kennedy
John Fitzgerald Kennedy was the 35th President of the United States from 1961 to 1963
I like these American coins.
Although I have most that are not silver.
I love this minting.
