1967 Kennedy DDR FS-50-1967-801 Any pics/links? (Added pic, but I don't think so)

StrikeOutXXX

I'm beginning to sort through some family coins, and have 3 candidates for the 1967 DDR Kennedy listed in the CPG as FS-50-1967-801 (page 285). I'm pretty sure on one of them, and not so sure on the other 2. I can't tell much from the pics in the CPG. If anyone has some close-ups or a web link for maybe some better diagnostics than what's in the book, I would appreciate it.

I've got a few hundred rolls of stuff to go through, maybe I'll post some pics later tonight if my eyes need a rest.

Thanks!!!
Jeff

No Links, just wanna say whats up, and does the Kid still have the PCGS Slabbed Franklin? They have acquired more since then, right?

Lets get them into collecting!

Hi Ken - Yup, he still has it. He's picked up a few giveaways and bought some stuff at our local antique shop, but he just turned 14 and is into girls and sports right now, so hasn't been too active lately.

Ooh my lord, I don't ever want to look at another 1979P SBA again - don't know what they saved those for, but no wide rims.

I don't think the 1967 Kennedy's are the DDR, I looked up the CONECA # and it sounds totally different than what is printed in the cherrypickers' guide.

From CONECA: 1-R-II-C (3); FS-50-1967-801
Description: Strong triple spread on all stars, including those between the rays, and most inner serifs of letters around rim

CPG: Doubling is evident on the outer reverse lettering, stars around the rim and a few rays on the reverse.

I couldn't see anything in the stars or rays. This was my best candidate, but since no matter how many posts or PDF files online I read, I still suck at identifying different doubling. Here is what I had hopes for, but it's looking like a no-go:

A very plain example of machine or strike doubling. BTW-keep looking for FS 801-it's not a difficult variety to find.

I agree - classic machine doubling.

Great close up pics though.

I agree, nice pics.


Strike doubling vote for me.
