Can someone show me a picture of an accent hair half versus a regular one? Thanks.

The hair thing baffles me. I can spot them from the serif on the "I".

You might be surprised to learn that there is an AH Kennedy in the Three Rivers Collection, that is, of course, ex-Russ.

I hear the guy behind the Three Rivers Collection is a very sophisticated numismatist.

To the left we have an Accented Hair Kennedy. Notice the Serif on the 'I' and the hair above the ear. Here is a comparison between the most common AH indicators from the obverse.

To the right is a normal proof Kennedy from the same year of issue.

Actually, he is a dumba$$, and I know him well enough to say so. Fortunately, he has surrounded himself with sophisticated dealers and collectors that make him look good.

Truly excellent information from both poorguy and Russ. Russ's web site is quite fun to read.

I believe Russ's name should have come before mine. He's the expert. I just happened to have those on hand and imaged them as of yesterday.
