3 nice shiny Roosies for you

 

Hey @Millard I am trying to remember the pointed 9 or the blunt 9 showed up with the Accented Hair Kennedy.
I have a few sets put away somwhere.

 

Well, it is my namesake, and my birthday, so might as well post my birth year set.

 

WoW! That was the year I graduated High School.

 

I'm not sure. I didn't get mine in a set with the half dollar. But it was probably so. The pointed 9 is the more rare proof.

 

I have it in a book here

I have the book here somewhere, I will have to try to find it.

 

I just read on an NGC forum that it was the pointed 9 found along with the
Accented Hair Kennedy Half in early 1964 Proof Sets.
