is anyone able to help identify this coin? I fear the obvious answer but did kennedy get busted in the chin for some PMD? the ones I see in the CPG that look similar to this variety all say special mint set. could this have come from a busted open set? thanks
Your half dollar would be the CONECA listed 66 BS DDO-008, note the die clash in front of the eye, a marker for the DDO-008. There is MDD on the chin. http://www.varietyvista.com/Variety Master Listings/kennedy doubled dies 1965-1966.htm#_1966_5 Larry Nienaber
Larry, maybe it's just the photo or maybe I'm blind, but I don't see a clash. Would you point it out for me? Chris
Attached are photos of the 66 BS DDO-008 Stage A before the clash, and Stage D the clash. It is hard to see. Larry Nienaber
larry for educational purposes can you point out the clash to me so I may identify any future ones I may have? and thanks for letting me know which variety it is
