[QUOTE="trtcoach, post: 211908, member: 8413"]I came across an unusual Kennedy half dollar a few months ago. It is a 1970-s proof kennedy half with a piece of the back of the head missing. There is a small indentation, (looks like a hole), on the side of the head too. Everyone was saying it was fake so I went to ICG and had it graded. It came back as a pr-64 mint error obverse struck through debris. What is erie about the coin is that when Kennedy was assasinated, the back of his head was damaged plus theres a small hole on the side that could be construed as a bullet hole. I'm just going by what I see and what others have told me but I cannot find any info on this coin. As far as I know, this is the only one in existence but I had high hopes that a member here could help me out with finding out more about it. I sent it in to Coinworld, and they took pictures and a guy named Eric said he would run the picture in an upcoming issue. Can anyone help me? Thank you, Tom My avatar is a picture of the coin before I had it graded.[/QUOTE]
