I was at the Buena Park coin show In CA today. I was picking through a box of UNC 1964 Kennedy's looking for varieties, and this one jumped out at me. The dealers had not noticed the doubling, so I was able to purchase this for $8. After some research, I think this is the FS-103 TDO. It has the matching RPM on the revere as well. If anyone can confirm this, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks! (Also, I had some trouble photographing this one, so please excuse my picture quality and glare)

Here's some more pictures, hope the doubling is clearer:

CoinHunter27, it's amazing that these things are sometimes around. I love how he sold it for very cheap, even though it's probably worth a lot more than what he sold it to you for.

True. It was a melt value of $5.50 today for 90% silver Kennedy`s, so I was probably already paying a bit more than I should. Not to be rude, but it`s a Good thing he didn't catch the variety before I did. The price probably would have been much higher.

It was a well played cherrypick.

You have it. I compared your pics with mine in hand and you made a very nice cherry pick.

I had a the same thing happen to me at a coin show. I bought the normal 1964-D half dollar, but when I looked at it later, it is the same TDO and RPM as well. (but I think I paid $4 back then. about 20 years ago)

Mr. Coop, that's awesome! And you paid less than me. Thanks for the response and congrats on a great pickup too.

Okay a question to the board. When he posted the first set of images and added new ones, what is different about them? Lets see some detective work on this question? (Clue: Something I'm always commenting about on micro photos)
