  Do some of you experts know how many of these AH Kennedys may exist? Or how many were minted? Just curious.

  Ogden,
  
  Those who know far more than I estimate that between 1% and 2% of production was Accented Hairs. This would put the total between 40,000 and 80,000 pieces before attrition.

  Russ, do you feel this is the AH? If so how do you feel about holding onto these long term? I'm trying to put something together for my grandson. Thanks Russ!

  Ogden,
  
  Yes, it is an Accented Hair. Long-term? HMM...No, I think that would be stupid so please give me all you find. Actually, I make no pretense about knowing what the future holds. I know only that it is an interesting variety which, by modern standards, has a limited supply and I like the coin - so I buy them.
  
  BTW, I got this one in today:
  
  
  
  Scored here for $9.99.
  
  It does need a little TLC, though.

  Hey, Russ.... do I detect a little bit of cameo goin' on there? Or, is it just your photographic expertise?

  Clark,
  
  It's a little bit of cameo and my mad skilz. It's right on the cusp so it probably would not receive the designation, but could get the standard one point bump for being close to CAM.
