    No, it was not. There are also state outlines that were done, a lot in 1976. All are PMD.

    someone wants their cent to qualify for the PCGS "Kennedy" quarterly special.


    I've found several stamped coins. they are stamped with all kinds of things. this will not be the only one you find. just hope you find a trade dollar with chop marks.


    there are also magician's coins to find, painted coins, plated coins, holed coins, acid treateed ones, etc.


    perhaps a thread for roll searching damage needs to be started. a census of the various post-mint "treatments" could be listed for people new to roll searching.

    Here's a few different ones with Kennedy. The 1969 is a Mason symbol.


    Most came with a fact card Paul mentioned that compared JF to Lincoln but some of the facts aren't exactly correct.

    Lincoln was elected in 1860
    Kennedy was elected in 1960
    Both have 7 letters in their names
    Both were shot on Fridays.
    Both were shot in presence of their wife.
    Both focused their work on civil rights.
    Both had their elections contested in court.

    Kennedy had secretary named Lincoln that warned him not to go to Dallas where he was shot.
    Lincoln had a secretary named Kennedy warned him not to go to the theater where he was shot.

    In both cases the next president/successor was named Johnson (Andrew Johnson then Lyndon Johnson)
    Both names had 13 letters.
    Both were southern democrats.
    Lyndon was born in 1908.
    Andrew was born in 1808.

    Booth was a southerner favoring unpopular ideas.
    Oswald was a southerner favoring unpopular ideas.

    Oswald shot Kennedy from a book depository/warehouse then hid in a theater.
    Booth shot Lincoln in a theater then hid in a warehouse.

    Booth was murdered before his trial.
    Oswald was murdered before his trial.

    Booth and Oswald were born almost 100 years apart.
    Lee Harvey Oswald and John Wilkes Booth each had 15 letters in their names.

    Lincoln and Kennedy's bodies were both carried in the same caisson.

    Kennedy met his death while riding in a Lincoln convertible made by the Ford Motor Company. Spooky!
    Let's try not to get upset.
