Accent hair ???

I just bought a roll of 1964 Kennedy coins and I think I might have an accented hair variation. Looks like it has the "Truncated Serif", "Broken Rays" and "Straight G". What do you think:






Having trouble uploading the Ray and straight g, try again tomorrow.

Wishbone? Check. Funny I? Check. I think you're right.

 

That sure looks like the A/H from the broken base of the "I". You might also check for either of the DDO's, FS-103 & FS-401.

YAY!!!!! You have no idea how excited I am... I've been wanting an A/H for the longest time. I am trying to distinguish between the DDO's, FS-103 & FS-401 varieties. I am not sure what ddo and fs means, tried looking it up. Double date?
Here are a few more pix, I am not sure if these tell the story. Thanks everyone!

 

DDO = Double Die Obverse
DDR = Double Die Reverse

I don't see any doubling on the obverse near the date or lettering.

 

got it. What's the FS?

 

full strike

 

Nice... thank you! Would you send this in to get graded? Do you think this is a MS64, or better?

 

Here a grade 64 Heavy hair accent close up that may help?
what Chris has already replied & the link below will help you find out what other Die Varieties the coin may have.

I am sure it's clear as day for the trained eye, but I am not sure where my coin stands and just like a proud parent, my baby is the most beautiful one...lol : )

 

i think it would deffinatly grade. possibly ms66

 

FS is the prefix used in the Cherrypickers Guide for each variety. It represents the initials of the two authors, Bill Fivaz and JT Stanton.

The FS-103 has obverse doubling on IGWT, LIBERTY, the date and the upper hair near the "R" of LIBERTY.

The coin posted by the OP is clearly an AH to my eye.

Here's my example (ngc 67 cam):

 

nice one

Ouch, that's so beautiful it hurts...

I think ngc came up a bit short on that one, I'd say thats a ultra cameo.

I tried taking another picture(i love taking pictures in the light box) to see if I could a better result...

 

Let's not forget the accented hair variety is a proof, so the grade would be PR, not MS.

 

oh yeah, thanks for catching that...

 

What he said

 

But that is not correct. It is what he (Chris) said:

 

Accented Hair w/ Double Die Reverse Class II?

I won this on line auction with noted Class II DDR Accented Hair.
