item on ebay;
https://www.ebay.com/itm/1993-S-Kennedy-Silver-Proof-Half-Dollar-NGC-PF-70-Ultra-Cameo/132776609016?epid=170391671&hash=item1eea1a44f8:g:qU0AAOSwYelblvPc
i hope that link works but as far as I know there were no silver half dollars made in 1993 and why has the grading service put 1994 as the year when it is clearly a 1993?

Even so, it is outrageous that NGC would issue a stupid error like that. makes one think, if they got that wrong what else are they getting wrong...

To be fair it's probably just a typo, but still.... I would expect that kind of thing from a basement grading company.
