[QUOTE="proofartoncircs, post: 1265110, member: 25952"]I have checked Breen's book and he does not mention the broken ray half at all. Neither does the Cherrypickers' Guide Fourth edition, volume II. Both of these sources include the accented Hair half. Another scarce early 1964 variety, found in proof sets with the accented hair half, was the pointed tail 9 which is in Breen. He estimated mintage at 2 million with 927 million blunt tail 9's for the Philadelphia mint circulation strikes. Denver was <40 million pointed versus >1,317 million blunt. The Cherrypickers' guide does not mention them. I don't think these dimes have a follwing today. I don't think there is much interest in the broken ray half dollar although those transitional pairings must be really scarce. The Ike Group Book now estimates the 1972 P type 2 dollar mintage to be maybe 20,000 for the March ones and perhaps 200,000 for the "August release" ones (chapter 4 page 3).[/QUOTE]
