[QUOTE="1966Kennedy_com, post: 4099789, member: 110600"]First and foremost, I would like to say Hello to all visitors to this post. I’m new to cointalk and this is my first post. I inherited my Grandfathers coin collection and have been going through over 1,000’s coins and it’s been very fun and educational. It’s also been very time consuming to say the least. Every Coin I look at under a 7.5 magnification. While going through his Kennedy Half Dollars I came across a 1966 Kennedy Half Dollar which appears to have several Mint Errors unless someone personally intended to make the coin look as if it has mint errors! The coin in question has multiple D mint marks on Kennedy’s head. Now while holding the Coin you can’t really see them. Under 7.5 magnification there are a total of 8 RAISED D’s not indented! Is it possible for someone to make a raised mint marking after circulation? If so how? With what tool? It’s microscopic! Thanks for the help.[/QUOTE]
