Well I bought a roll of BU 64 Kennedys. I had been saving for a while and thought I would have a blast looking for Double Dies, RPMs, and just maybe a MS67. Well first there are no MS67's in the roll... 2nd - one thing I did not realize when do this. What are the odds that all 20 would be exactly alike? Well now that I think about it, very good actually. Sure enough, it appears that 19 of the 20 are the exact same Obverse for sure and probably reverse also. I didn't look that hard on the reverse once I realized what was up and why I was seeing the same darn die markers etc. Anyhow, I am not sure what to think of the 'D' mintmark... The lower left looks strange but I wonder if it is Mint Doubling? What say you? Also - I picked one of the better ones to get a comment or two about grade. I think MS65 for sure but not sure if any more..I can say one thing about this one, I sure as heck know what a polish line is now.....and yes, that is a punch in the cheek on the coin....a big one...
Ethan, it doesn't look like an RPM to me. It looks like it is probably machine doubling - note the left side of the olive branch as well. Also, I don't think it will make MS65 with that hit on the cheek. Chris
It could have been worse...you could have bought a double OBW roll to search and found 39 of 40 of the same die. Larry Nienaber
