1964 P DDO or Machine Doubling

#1 Unread post by monsterbug1 »

In the search of my silver halves, I have also found what I believe to be a 1964 P DDO, but I am far less sure of this one as compared to the 1964 D DDO in my previous post

Looks like Machine doubling . You can check out what "true" Doubling is for the 1964 DDO here:https://www.doubleddie.com/1598977.html

Thank you for checking. I was by no means sure about this one, as it looked more significant than MD but not quite like a ddo.

could you take a look at my other question(different post) regarding 1964 DDO/TDO/QDO

Sorry to disagree Sal. This is one of the many legit DDO 1964 Kennedy Halves. And its a type II REV (flared G vs straight G in the designer's initials)

The notching on the lettering (and no thinning which is a hallmark of machine doubling) in WE TRUST is a dead giveaway.

Check http://varietyvista.com/12%20Kennedy%20 ... 1964-D.htm for a possible exact match.

How much squash would a sasquatch squash if a sasquatch would squash squash?

thank you for letting me know; the 1964 P DDO is not too rare, but I am still glad to have found it

Funny, I was at a flea market and found a circulated one myself last Saturday! I don't know the exact one it is b/c quite honestly, even though a Kennedy specialist, as long as its a nice looking DDO, I don't care to much since the minor ones are not really something I want to collect - there are just too many for that date especially when you start trying to find out which ones have both the Type I and Type II REV. Its not documented anywhere I know of yet. I started the documentation, but just have too many other projects in the way to finish it any time soon.

could you take a look at my other post about a 1964 D DDO I also stumbled across, as I am unsure of which one it is, and those ones seem to be significantly more valuable than the 1964 P DDO's

Hey Sal...
Mind if I ask what made you think this was MD? We could discuss it here and use it for learning/teaching :)
