<p>[QUOTE=&quot;John Anthony, post: 1641323, member: 42773&quot;]The ironic thing is that when the first Kennedy Half Dollars were minted in 1964, Jackie Kennedy objected to the hair detail on the proof issues, so the engravers smoothed out his coiffure somewhat. Nevertheless, a small percentage of 64 proofs with the &quot;accented hair&quot; device were issued, and they&#039;re now much sought after by collectors. This is what the variety looks like.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://postimage.org/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://postimage.org/" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://s9.postimage.org/w2kpgnjhb/accented.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></a></p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; Now if Jackie objected to that, she must be rolling over in her grave at the current version, and I think the earlier busts look more natural myself.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
