Heads up on an Accented Hair that is not.

Despite the title, this one is not an Accented Hair. Looks to be an honest mistake. I dropped the seller an eMail to let him know.

Russ,

Did you see this one? AH DD
It's obviously an AH. Do you think the DD brings any premium? Do you have any like this?

Clark,

The DD doesn't do anything for me, and the coin is already close to my max on raw ones. I think it would carry some premium for some collectors, but just not my thing.

BTW, I already heard back from the seller in the auction I linked. I passed on some additonal verification info to him.

He already edited the auction. Good seller.

That auction you posted didn't make a lot of sense. He posted a picture of how to determine an AH. You'd think if he had one in-hand it would be obvious to him. His picture is a bit unclear in the hair area, but the "I" is clearly not truncated.

Good job, Russ.

what's needed for the AH determination? Am I looking for a pronounced Vshape above the ear and the I in LIBERTY missing the bottom left serif?

sinin1,

It's more of a W shape above the ear.

I don't suppose Russ would object to me posting his oft-used link to his comparison page:
