I believe it's at worst, a New Variety and I'll be glad to update the group when I hear back from Mr Wiles. Hopefully next week!
Good luck!

Haven't heard back yet, thinking about emailing Dr Wiles to follow up tomorrow... Would that be a good idea or should I keep checking the mailbox?

I should have the Kennedy half back in hand tomorrow before noon and I'll update this post. I'll also add that I'm hoping for the best but prepared to hear MD, as well. I'm looking forward to finding out for sure though because I haven't seen another coin look like this one... Besides a DD... Either way we'll know for sure tomorrow! Thanks again for everyone's help and input regarding this matter!

Welp... You guys were right! Dr Wiles said it's Machine Damage Doubling. So it's not an Error or a New Variety... I've been told learning Doubled Dies is a hard lesson and it holds true!

Thank you for getting back to us with the results. It's unfortunate that it was Machine Doubling, but you're still learning the different types of doubling. Don't give up and keep learning here on CCF. You'll eventually be able to differentiate genuine Doubled Dies apart from different worthless types of doubling.

For sure, I will. Thank you! I've learned a lot over the past 1 and a half and best of all, one day I'll be able to pass what I learned onto the next generation!
