<p>[QUOTE=&quot;howboutatrade, post: 1152022, member: 10387&quot;]Hi all, I have been collecting Kennedy half dollars for years.&nbsp; One observation I have made is 1980 D and 1981 D Kennedy halves have a common issue (even from Mint Sets).&nbsp; There are scratches at the neck, cheek, and below part in the hair.&nbsp; These look like the coin was slid, obverse side down, on a hard surface.&nbsp; Does anyone know the cause, and how does this impact the grade (I immediately assume AU at best, but it is so common, are these manufacturing issues that do not hurt the grade so drastically)?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>[ATTACH]119117.vB[/ATTACH][ATTACH]119116.vB[/ATTACH][ATTACH]119118.vB[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
