[QUOTE="TheNickelGuy, post: 1485128, member: 20201"]I would say it is what they call a no FG Kennedy half. I remember when these were discovered in 1984 and I do think that either Coin World and or Coin Prices or one of those magazine/price guides did an article on it. I think it was the 1984 P anyway that made it a celebrity of sorts in the Kennedy corner. They were selling for anywhere from $3.00 to $10.00 if I recall correctly. I think there are other dates known but this one was pretty famous. Maybe somebody will correct me if I'm wrong. It could have been an 1982 P too, maybe that was the year I am thinking of. Anyways, I think they are interesting but I don't think they have that sensational collectability they had as when they came out and as far as paying prices go, I think they are fairly inexpensive. It is a place where grease and debris is likely to get stuck on the dies. Some show none of the FG initials, while others so called no FG halves that I see for sale will still have a hint of it showing. I don't see the FG on your pictures.
