A 1964 D DDO-009 Kennedy half. I am pleased with my purchase. All four Kennedy DDO's I have posted about were at a basement bargain price.

I definitely agree that this coin is a double die example. Now, this just may be a result of the reflection or positioning of the coin with respect to the light source but the letters T and Y appear to have a shelf like structure near the top displaying at least in that area a small amount of Machine Doubling.

I have seen in less common instances coins that display both characteristics. But this MD is an extremely small percentage compared to the overall DDO classification for this coin.

Slight MD maybe so, but the notching on top and the legs of both devices are indisputable.

You are correct Chase. Indisputable. And, a blind man on a fast horse can see that the tripling on the bottom of the T and Y.

Seeing the triple spread on the T and Y of LIBERTY looks to me like enough to say you have the CONECA listed 64D DDO-009. If you want to further confirm it as the -009 and figure out what stage you have, attached are some of my photos of markers from the CONECA Master Listings, http://varietyvista.com/Variety%20M....htm#_1964-D
Stage A marker - die scratch from nostril to lips, note this can be seen on stages A-D.
Stage C - die crack through clouds from clouds 3 to 5.
Stage D - die break between clouds 4 and 5

It is the stage A, die scratch from nose to lips. There are no die cracks in the clouds.
