Re: 1968 D Kennedy could this be a PL coin?
Here is a PCGS article on Proof and Proof-like coins:
https://www.pcgs.com/news/differences-b ... like-coins
It indicates that proof-like coins result from brilliant planchets struck from newly polished dies.

Keep in mind that the terminology such as PL = "Prooflike", should be considered a "Descriptor".....
For example ... the word "Slider"
