How to tell enhanced hair Kennedy?

Just p/u 2 P and D 1964 mint sets from a trusted dealer. What am I supposed to see with my loupe?

Do you have a coin book? Get a "Cerrypickers Guide" by Bill Fivaz and J. T. Stanton. This book will open your eyes to understanding coins. Since you now have a loupe, learn how to use it properly. Go to a coin shop, or show and look. Ask the dealers how and why they use theirs. Good luck.

 

It is called Accented Hair.. click to enlarge.

 

Note that the foot on the left-hand side of the "I" in LIBERTY is broken off. ~ Chris

Thanks to all.Looked them over and no Accented Hair. Nice clean sets though still in their Cello Mint Pkg

 

You won't find the accented hair in a mint set. It is on the proof coin. The I in Liberty is missing the lower left serif is the easiest way to tell...

 

Accented hair or not?

 

I remember the days when you could cherrypick these off ebay. Anyone remember Russ. He was a master at it.
