    It looks like it. You can't get closer pictures?

    I agree with @OAKSTAR that it looks like it is a FS-901 no FG Kennedy but would really need a clear sharp picture where the initials should be to tell for sure.

    This picture gave me doubt (blown up as well)

    "A 1972-D No FG Half Dollar should show no traces of Gasparro’s initials. Genuine No FG halves will also show weakness in other surrounding features, such as the eagle’s wing, stars, etc." (emphasis added) https://www.pcgs.com/news/1972-d-no-fg-kennedy-half-dollar

    Don't feel bad. I couldn't find my loupe because I couldn't find my glasses! 🤣 😂

    The second to last photo show nearly the entire initials, though weak. So not sure you have the real one.,
