[QUOTE="NorthKorea, post: 1287680, member: 29643"]I have no way to verify this, but I have a theory on the 1964 Accented Hair variety Kennedy Half dollars. I recently purchased five (supposedly) sealed 1964 Proof sets. Three of them were opened, but of the open ones, two had Accented Hair Kennedy coins in them. Now, for the theory. The two envelopes that contained the Accented Hair Kennedy coins had a bolder typeface on the wording. (This comment applies to all the wording, including the "1964 P.C." part.) The third opened envelope had a regular 1964. As I said, I can't definitively test the theory, since the two unopened envelopes are both of the "non-bold" typeface variety. So, if anyone has a bold and non-bold type face unopened envelope, and they are willing to take the risk, it may behoove you to open the bold one, if you are still trying to get an accented hair to finish your set. My camera battery just died, but I'll post pics of the two accented hairs using my junkie phone camera and junkie magnifying device. [ATTACH]143725.vB[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
