Anyone ever seen one of these before? 67' SMS Kennedy Half DDO

I've seen plenty of similar DDO SMS Kennedy halfs dated 1966, but this is the first time I've seen a 1967 SMS with this type of doubling. Has anyone else seen or have one of these? Imo it's extremely similar to the 66' SMS doubled die with the doubling being prominent on the profile mostly on the nose, cheek, eye area and lips. Pretty neat coin imo.

Wow! I couldn't find anything listed with CONECA that is anything like that. Can you get a closeup of the word GOD? It looks like it might be doubled as well with splits in the serif.

If this is a new DDO it would be a major one. The best person to contact regarding this would be James Wiles over at Variety Vista http://www.varietyvista.com/Attribution Services.htm

 

I went on pcgs coin facts, to see if any of the full shots, show the same doubling .

And the answer is yes .

 

I see no doubling of the eye, cheek or lips on the coin you've posted that is anywhere near comparable imo to the coin I posted. Not sure if you posted the wrong coin or what

 

Yeah I couldn't find anything regarding a coin like this in any of the error/variety books I have or online either when I checked. There doesn't really appear to be any noticeable spread on the letters just heavy doubling on the profile from the eye area down to the chin, although the coin is a proof like SMS with mild cameo so it's kind of hard to photograph for me at least.

 

I doesn't look like a doubled die to me...I think MDD.

I do think if pcgs took some images of your coin, it would look the same as the one I posted ..

 

I don't see it especially the eye and cheek but sure.
