[QUOTE="Marsden, post: 1640305, member: 38010"]Sorry for the large photos (whoa, I see that CT shrank them but they can be enlarged by clicking!). The differences are much clearer in professional proof photography but I learned today that some vendors use the same photos of proof coins over and over (for different years!) and simply plug in different dates on their coin images. Somewhat shocking, and I'll document it if anyone wants. Meanwhile, I'm beginning to think there were a number of tweaks to this design (and I should have said that the engravings rather than the designs were changed). But clearly around 1994 was a watershed. [ATTACH]236051.vB[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]236053.vB[/ATTACH] Now I've discovered 3 Coin-Silver halves and 3 40% silver. I wasn't even looking for them or expecting them, really. Sorry to post this in this forum, it should be in the Kennedy Halves forum which I just discovered. Sorry to post in this thread which is about searching rolls. That's what I was doing but it became a design question.[/QUOTE]
