Alpha2814 Pillar of the Community United States 2023 Posts	Posted 06/09/2017 2:19 pm Can we get a shot of the full obverse? It looks like either a scratch or an impression from the rim of another coin (possibly another Kennedy half), but I can't tell from the arc shown. Report this Post to the Staff
Poindexterxx New Member United States 9 Posts	Posted 06/09/2017 2:24 pm I was trying to photograph a rise on the coins surface with a macro lens shooting from the side of the coin. The closest resemblance to anything I can think of would be a broken mirror. Report this Post to the Staff

Poindexterxx New Member United States 9 Posts	Posted 06/09/2017 10:02 pm I did not scratch the coin. I noticed after posting there appears to be a more common type image like a break running east west from the forehead hairline to the edge. Report this Post to the Staff
