Tucans New Member Brazil 28 Posts	Posted 03/27/2018 03:00 am Hello guys. One more doubt. This half dollar seems to me to have errors in the legend. I highlighted 'u' and 'i' in United, I think there are others too ... but I was lazy. Thanks for comment. Edited by Tucans 03/27/2018 03:03 am Report this Post to the Staff

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 75147 Posts	Posted 03/27/2018 03:07 am It's Post Mint Damage, not an error. The metal is pushed up and has been moved. Circulation has taken it's toll on the Kennedy half unfortunately. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff

sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21788 Posts	Posted 03/27/2018 06:17 am Don't worry about the damage. The U.S. Mint made 433 million 1964 Kennedys. Because they were the last year of 90% silver coinage, AND the first year of issue for the type, huge numbers of them were immediately taken out of circulation as keepsakes at the time of they were issued, and have survived in uncirculated condition. As a result, it is still possible to get a '64 Kennedy in uncirculated condition, for only a tiny premium above the silver value. Edited by sel_69l 03/27/2018 08:21 am Report this Post to the Staff
