Gi all, I just got this in and was told to check it for an accented hair in my 1964 proof set on the Kennedy half dollar , but I'm having a hard time seeing the difference. Help please?

Not an Accented Hair variety. Your half has the reverse designer's initials of the RDV-002 (flared G). The Accented Hair variety is the RDV-001 (straight G).

Just a normal proof example. The accented hair has markers to match up to and note the hair itself. I is not accented.

Red title bar normal, green title bar the difference of the hair affected area.(Note the area above the ear. Its a quick flash though)
