I came across this Kennedy half the other day. Was wondering if it is the 1974D DDO-001. Looks circulated or poorly taken care of but still some nice luster left. If real any idea of price and the grade?

Looks real to me.
Did you find it in circulation?

I've been trying to find a value on the one I found also. My 2008 RedBook lists $1.50, but that is a typo: it should be $150 (in MS condition). That's about as close as I've gotten, though.

Here's mine: (You can't see the green stuff without the camera, but I assume acetone would remove it?)

That looks good to me. In circulated condition, maybe $15-20? I just found 1 among a $600 customer-wrapped group last month. It is only the 2nd one I've found in 10+ years of half searching.

That's it though the first picture doesn't capture it well.

This is fairly "common" in the mint set with about 6% being the DDO. Nice examples are tough and MS-62 seems typical. Choice examples are easy enough but gems are scarce.
Time don't fly, it bounds and leaps.
