Message:: [QUOTE="Tim C, post: 2363699, member: 71569"]WOW!  I suppose also that 2 + 2 = 7.  When did Jackie stop the production of the "Accented Hair" obverse design and what did that have to do with the RDV-001 and the RDV-002? Just to put thing in perspective and to show how common Proof Kennedy half dollars are with the ODV-002 (Normal Hair) paired with the RDV-001 (Straight G), you need to look no further then the CONECA files (remember that there are many more die pairs of this type that are not recognizable doubled dies).  For 1964 Proof Kennedy half dollars the following list are for ODV-002 / RDV-001: DDO-009, DDO-020, DDO-032, DDO-034, DDO-036, DDR-007, DDR-008, DDR-018, DDR-020, DDR-024 plus I have about 10 others 1964 "Normal Hair" Kennedys mated to the RDV-001 (Straight G) that James Wiles classified as "Too minor to list". As far as the 1964-D/D RPM-003 (FS-503) is concerned, the RPM-004, RPM-007, RPM-008, RPM-009 and the RPM-010 are all on the RDV-001(Straight G) plus the 1964-D - MDO-002, DDO-002, DDO-010, DDO-012, MDR-001 and the DDR-002. This in not a new discovery or anything like the type "B" reverse Washington quarters.  I realize you mentioned yesterday that "I (you) will discuss this variety with a couple of the top Kennedy guys and check in later, hopefully with accurate info."  I hope you will not be disappointed in what they tell you.  With the exception of James Wiles, probably the "TOP" Kennedy variety collector is a member on these boards and goes by the handle atrox001 if you want to send him a PM. I do not want to discourage anyone's enthusiasm for collecting Kennedy varieties but please see the forest through the trees and don't try to make a castle out of an ant hill. Just my two cents on the subject,Tim[/QUOTE]
