tropicalbats Pillar of the Community United States 6140 Posts	Posted 08/14/2026 11:31 pm Fairly rare to see double struck Kennedy halves. This one is pretty far off but shows a distorted E of Liberty and some of the hairline in the second strike. It's quite hard to make out but I do not believe this was struck uniface as some of the lettering from the second strike seems to be in there amid the slide on the reverse. 1981-P Kennedy half dollar mint error - double struck 2nd strike off center Report this Post to the Staff

tropicalbats Pillar of the Community United States 6140 Posts	Posted Yesterday 10:15 am Thanks for the comments! Is the second strike out of collar? I think it kind of has to be to be off center, but is the collar undeployed I can not say. Report this Post to the Staff
