Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 75080 Posts	Posted 07/30/2018 3:38 pm Your coin is in a Late Die State (LDS). The die has been polished down to get rid of Die Clashes. There's die flow lines as well. Just a tired die almost ready for retirement soon. Errers and Varietys. Edited by Errers and Varietys 07/30/2018 3:39 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Leeevi Valued Member United States 184 Posts	Posted 07/31/2018 1:53 pm By marci grass, I meant the lines around the eye, and down the cheek. Kind of resembles a decorative mask. Sorry for the confusion. There is some toning. I was stumped by the radiating wrinkles around his eye. Report this Post to the Staff

berto Pillar of the Community United States 840 Posts	Posted 08/02/2018 4:00 pm Is there any value above face for this coin? I have several like it. Report this Post to the Staff
Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 75080 Posts	Posted 08/02/2018 4:04 pm Berto, there's no value above face for this, since it is only in a Very Late Die State. It's part of normal wear and tear on the dies. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff

CoinCents Pillar of the Community United States 3656 Posts	Posted 08/05/2018 11:56 am Well I am throwing another one into the mix because I have seen this on many of the Kennedy halves. PIDT - Progressive Indirect Die Transfer - When I see the circle outline around the head. http://www.error-ref.com/progressiv...gn-transfer/ The "Radiating Wrinkles" that you mentioned I think have a nickname of "Crow's feet" Report this Post to the Staff
