How can you tell a 1964 Acc. Hair Kennedy? Please PM. Thanks

I can't seem to notice the Acc. Hair Kennedy. Can you help! and are there great values to the market for 67's and higher in Flat and Cameo?
Thanks in advance.

Rick,

I don't have pics for comparison for you, but I have an Accented at PCGS right now (should be a 68 or 68CAM). Compared to a regular proof, there is a lot more hair descending from the part, especially above the ear, where on the regular, most of the hair off the part goes up. Also, on the Accented, there is an upside down wishbone coming off the ear and going up towards the R in Liberty.

Well put Keith. I've always described it as an long, lopsided V. Also the reverse shield is a bit rounded at the upper corners, though the hair above the ear is far easier to spot.

Thanks Gentelmen.
Its all Great Food for thought!

Rick,

As soon as I get that Accented back from PCGS, I'll try to get a comparison scan together for you.
