If anybody is looking for a mid-grade cameo Accented Hair and wants a strong example.

This coin is it.

There are a lot of these in cameo holders that just barely made the designation. Not the case with that one. A little less frost fade on the bust and that one would be DCAM. It's a genuine winner for the grade. And, BTW, I would post this thread regardless of who the seller was, so you can save the BS about spam.

SPAM!

Gorgeous piece. I don't even like Kennedys and I like it.

Fletcher · February 15, 2007 3:02AM

I guess that it is OK to spam the US Coin forum if you are in the "Circle" ... different rules of conduct apply to them.

hiyosilver · February 15, 2007 3:02AM

I don't collect proofs but, that's a nice frosty looking coin.

What does this normally bring in this grade?

$110-$120.00 but that one will probably draw a lot more.

SmallTownCoins · February 15, 2007 4:01AM

Couple questions...

does every accented hair Kennedy have the left foot of the "I" in LIBERTY missing ?

and

are there any known examples of a NON accented hair Kennedys with the missing left foot on the I ?

make sense ?

MadMarty · February 15, 2007 4:05AM

Russ · February 15, 2007 4:06AM

<< does every accented hair Kennedy have the left foot of the "I" in LIBERTY missing ? >>

It's not actually missing, it's truncated. There is a small bit of a serif there.

<< are there any known examples of a NON accented hair Kennedys with the missing left foot on the I ? >>

Yes, the truncated serif can appear on the regular coin if the die has become abraded in that area or if a strike-thru happens to land right in that spot.

Russ, NCNE

MadMarty · February 15, 2007 4:09AM

Never mind...

SmallTownCoins · February 15, 2007 4:11AM

so correct me if i'm wrong, but I should be able to pick accented hair Kennedys out of proof sets
without even looking at the hair.... just by examining the "I".... correcto mundo ?

<< so correct me if i'm wrong, but I should be able to pick accented hair Kennedys out of proof sets

Most of the time, yes. But occasionally you'll run in to a regular coin with a truncated serif for one of the reasons I mentioned above.

Easy, one person links your auctions, another person links to the poster's auctions. If the circle is two people it looks real bad, if it is four or five, it is a SPAM club, but each person can deny any wrong doing.

Again, once in a great while is okay by me (like once a month or less), but folks that consistently link to one person's auctions may be earning brownie points for sweetheart deals later.

None of which has ever happened. In fact, this is the first time I've ever linked one of Marty's auctions, and to my recollection he has NEVER linked one of mine. And, he did not ask for this link and in fact knew nothing about it. If he had asked, (or anyone else for that matter), I would refuse.

I can only assume that all the hypocrites who are screaming spam will never again link to a coin on a dealer's site because it appears to be a primo example and they might think forum membership would be interested. Right, Fletcher?

basestealer · February 15, 2007 4:35AM

I don't mind spam, as long as the person is a member of the CU forums and not an ID created just to spam. You know the difference. But then again I am not normal and my doctor told me so too.

looks like Marty will hit a home run on this one.

I'll be right in there bidding.

Gemineye · February 15, 2007 6:15AM

Let me add my 2 cents here if I may.I have bought some Acc Hair coins from E-Bay and from Teletrade and if a memmber here thought that one Acc Hair looked good no matter who it was from why not pass the info along.I don't see what the big deal is..

sinin1 · February 15, 2007 6:19AM

I just bought 100 unopened 1964 proof sets and am going to send them in for bulk submission, so I should have a few of my own in a few weeks

JRocco · February 15, 2007 7:00AM

I have been here quite a while and I can honestly say that I have never seen Russ spam Marty's or anyones auctions for that matter.
That is a nice one by the way Marty.

DesertRat · February 15, 2007 7:10AM

I'm not so sure.....that seller had negative feedback back in October. Is he trustworthy??

relicsncoins · February 15, 2007 7:35AM

Hey Russ,

I don't know much about Kennedys, but see you guys mention these acc. hair 64's from time to time. Can you give me a brief synopsis of the story behind these. How do you identify them and when were they discovered etc. Also, what percentage of 64 proof sets have this coin in them?

Thanks,

JJ

It looks as if it is a terrific coin... lets get over the rest of the nonsense and move on.

spelling correction... nothing else

percyb · February 15, 2007 9:35AM

Thanks so much. Funny you put this up cuz this a.m. I was going to ask if anyone had a good example of the accentuated kennedy. I happen to have a few ofthese 64s in mint proof boxes that haven't been touched since then. I couldn't exactly tell if they were the A' ones or not.

Bear · February 15, 2007 1:21PM

OK, fry up the spam, add some eggs

and we can all have a snack.

You can both tell me to drop dead if you want to but in order to avoid the SHILL!!!!! accusations why didn't you post this thread AFTER the sale like most decent folk do around here? Oh yeah, I get it! Never mind.

Don't need to tell you anything. But we do need to ask you this. Since you have a link to your eBay auctions in your sigline, doesn't your logic here infer that you may be a shill to your own eBay auctions?

TAClough · February 15, 2007 1:54PM

Where are you from??? Most auctions that I see linked around here are for current auctions. Only a few cry babies are complaining about it.

What's this "we" crap? You seem to be the one needing to ask me about my eBay link. And I don't have any active auctions at this time. Got any more dumb questions?

<< Where are you from??? Most auctions that I see linked around here are for current auctions. Only a few cry babies are complaining about it.

>>

Where'm I from? ...probably the same country you are. And most auction links I look at around here outside of the BST thread are for completed auctions. But I won't argue with you. I'm sure you look at a lot more of them than I do and I can tell you're an expert on cry babies too.

coindeuce · February 15, 2007 2:33PM

Oh, I do get it. Your dumb question came first.
