<p>[QUOTE="Double Die, post: 3250135, member: 91857"]I have this '73 proof set and the Kennedy is a DDO-002, the Ike is a DDR-004, and the nickel although undocumented for any varieties, has doubling of the forehead and eye. While I'm very confident on the half and dollar, there is some question if the nickel is MD or DDO? I have not set them free and tried to take some pics through the plastic, but there was too much glare and none of them show what the eye can see. </p><p><br /></p><p>My question is which makes more sense?
