OK, Russ started it. Is this Kennedy real or AT?

    Even you even have to ask about a piece like that, I'd strongly recommend that you stick with white coins only.

    Russ:
    It is? I had no idea. Can you have Accented Hair on a Proof? Thought these were given on uncirculated.

    The variety exists only in the proof coins.

    According to Lablover his is in a PCGS holder! Mine was a dipping accident that fell behind the washer! That's what it looked like after 6 months.

    Bear:
    I believe it to be real. Purchased the coin from Coingame 2000, don't think Mike would let an AT coin be sold much less purchase it himself.

  • Lablover,

    I'm the dumb one Jim -- I didn't know it was the accented hair variety so you scored one on me (sorta like the NGC MS63 1892-CC $1 you bought from me that I recently upgraded to PCGS MS64 for you)! What a nice guy I am...

    Bear,

    The toning on Lablover's Kennedy half dollar is stone original. It was part of a collection of proofs I purchased that were stored in 2X2 Kraft envelopes for thirty years. I submitted dozens of cool toned proofs to PCGS and subsequently offered them on eBay where they realized very strong prices.

    Best To All and God Bless,

    Mike

    Ya Marty.I,d say the dip was too long and too strong.

  • MadMartyMadMarty Posts: 16,697 ✭✭✭
    If you really must know, it was a dip that when real wrong. I dipped the coin and was shaking it, before dipping it in acetone. When I was shaking it, it flew out of my hand and landed behind the washer. I didn't think it was worth digging out. Well that was 6 months ago, had to move the washer and there was this FUGLY Kennedy! Just wanted to share!
