Splitting Kennedy

This is the first certified mated pair of a broken off clamshell / lamination of a Kennedy Half Dollar that I have seen and thought it was pretty cool.

Post an interesting Kennedy Half Dollar error coin.

    One of the coolest errors I've seen, and even better that it's in separate slabs.

    Great detached partial clad layer err! It has a great size and positioning!

    Of note, my understanding is that this isn't technically a "mated pair" as a mated pair is defined as two different items that were struck together, not a single item that split into two pieces.

    Here are your TrueViews!

    I guess it doesn't really matter but the TrueViews pictures stink compared to @ctf_error_coins pictures.

    Well, here's 50% of your request. It's not interesting but it's an error. 😂 🤣

    I do not have any error Kennedy halves.... but that first one is really interesting... Neat to have both pieces. Cheers, RickO

    Some really great looking Kennedys.
    I do not own any "error" Kennedys as shown.
    Thanks to all for sharing.

    Kennedys are my quest...

    It’s kind of a shame the pair at the top isn’t slabbed in a dual holder.

    Very, very cool all the same.
