Is this .50 JFK 1964-D mintmark an error? I don't know what to call it.

Thank you in advanced.

I'm not sure what's going on with the "D" -- could be machine doubling, could be something hitting it during circulation, could be a die chip as well. Others here may recognize it if it's an actual variety.

There's a pretty big error on the "4" in the date, though.

oh my gosh I was nervous for my 1st post ever! I reckon I wished it to be a '64 but it sure ain't its a 68-D as in duh. Thanks for confirming my suspicions that its a something error and does not add extra value for many.

 

Damn

 

So cute. Lol

 

Looks like it could be a doubled die obv. The W in we looks like it has split serifs. A close up of the moto could confirm.

 

It's hard to tell in the close-ups but in the last photo it looks like a die chip on the mm when I zoom in.

 

I thought that too, but if you enlarge the image of the whole coin the split serifs aren't there, so I suspect slight movement during the close up image of the mintmark.

 

Probably a Die Chip on the D Mint Mark
