<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ethan, post: 1924002, member: 68800&quot;]Well I just added some information and link to one that sold for $14. I think I would have grabbed that if I had known what I know now.</p><p><br /></p><p>- Went through all my 64 Proofs (20).......second to last one, I found it. It is not a Cameo but it is in great shape. So I have found one of these in the wild also. I have only found one Accented Hair in the wild so that is a tie.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Found some more information on these,</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://forums.collectors.com/messageview.cfm?catid=26&amp;threadid=812320" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://forums.collectors.com/messageview.cfm?catid=26&amp;threadid=812320" rel="nofollow">http://forums.collectors.com/messageview.cfm?catid=26&amp;threadid=812320</a></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>My Cherrypicker&#039;s 4th Edition has it somewhat, its says an AH in PR65 is worth $20 and the normal variety in PR65 is $9. So 1/2 the AH. Well I am not to sure about this.</p><p><br /></p><p>So lets dig a bit and maybe someone that has some population figures can cross it over to PCGS and NGC.</p><p><br /></p><p>From ANACS Website (2012) Date.....</p><p>1964&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; PF TYPE 1&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; STRAIGHT G&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; (29)</p><p>1964&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; PF&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; ACCENTED HAIR FS-401&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; (242)</p><p><br /></p><p>That is roughly 12% of the Accented Hair Type. Now we should interpolate some things. First, this is almost unknown compared to the AH type. As I have found there is no real demand for these that I can find. I think this is strange as they have to be uncommon and any Kennedy collector should want one. </p><p><br /></p><p>Again gathering some information on the AH at;</p><p><a href="http://www.ipotad.com/pages/ah2.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ipotad.com/pages/ah2.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.ipotad.com/pages/ah2.html</a></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>and here;</p><p><a href="http://kennedyhalfdollars.net/1964-accented-hair-variety-kennedy-half-dollar/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://kennedyhalfdollars.net/1964-accented-hair-variety-kennedy-half-dollar/" rel="nofollow">http://kennedyhalfdollars.net/1964-accented-hair-variety-kennedy-half-dollar/</a></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>So if I take my random sample of 20 and I found one, then that is 5%.</p><p><br /></p><p>I can not remember where but I think that I read that the obverse die is used for 2/3 of the time that the reverse is. I am not positive about this, so I will just use a conservative figure of 1/3 more for the Reverse Die.</p><p><br /></p><p>If we take the guesstimated mintage of Accented Hair Kennedy&#039;s at 100,000. That leaves about 50,000 of these theoretically.</p><p><br /></p><p>Lets assume 25% were melted around 1980 and maybe some in 2011.</p><p><br /></p><p>That takes us to around 37,500. This is a round number, you see how I came up with it so take it with a grain of salt. </p><p><br /></p><p>However, if one were to find a Cameo/Deep Cameo of these, then the ballgame changes. I remember seeing somewhere that NGC and PCGS each have around 1000 of the 64 Cameo&#039;s. I can not remember the Accented Hair Cameos but I would bet that these are even more rare. Think about it, the dies were used towards the end stage, before Mrs. Kennedy made them change it. If Cameo&#039;s only make up say 15% of the total numbers, then these Type 2 Obverse - Type 1 Reverse coins should only have a population of at most 12% of the regular ones. Remember that ANACS probably has a higher percentage of these graded as they are the only ones to slab them.</p><p><br /></p><p>I forgot I can get into NGC so lets take a look shall we?</p><p><br /></p><p>1964&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; AH&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; 7809</p><p>1964&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; AH CAM&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; 1031</p><p>1964&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; AH DCAM&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 63</p><p><br /></p><p>Lets look at PCGS</p><p><br /></p><p>1964&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; AH&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; 4075</p><p>1964&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; AH CAM&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; 808</p><p>1964&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; AH DCAM&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 94</p><p><br /></p><p>Well that is around 14,000 Accented Hair Kennedy&#039;s that have been slabbed. I am not going to change that number even though I know some are crossovers and resubmitted coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>Just seeing these numbers makes me think that of these Type 2 Obverse - Type 1 Reverse numbers should come out conservatively around here:</p><p><br /></p><p>1964&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; T2O-T1R&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; ~ 6500</p><p>1964&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; T2O-T1R CAM&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; ~ 1000</p><p>1964&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; T2O-T1R DCAM&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; ~ 85</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Well there you have it, my afternoon gone but I did enjoy it. Maybe we have a Sleeper Kennedy on our hands.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>PS. In my research I came up with this thread in CoinTalk.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.cointalk.com/threads/kennedy-accented-hair-reverse-die.191876/" class="internalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.cointalk.com/threads/kennedy-accented-hair-reverse-die.191876/">http://www.cointalk.com/threads/kennedy-accented-hair-reverse-die.191876/</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
