After looking at a couple thousand 69D Kennedy's over the past few years, searching for doubled dies, I have found the flared G is much less common than the straight G, but wouldn't think it is any more of a premium.

It maybe obvious to us, but a lot of new ones come in here daily. They need to see the differences with their eyes to train themselves.

It looks great Mrzllewellyn. One modification, keep in mind it's a D. Both are D's. Thanks!

Don't forget the credit to the photographer on the images. Keeps you out of copyright issues.

I'm getting wrapped around the axle. I'm still looking for something documented and definitive on this. I found this old thread: http://goccf.com/t/162694

Plus this: https://www.NGCcoin.com/coin-variet...es-vscid-18/

I even looked in the CherryPickers Guide. Unless I'm overlooking it, I see nothing.

Notching? ....and that's why I'm here, to learn. I've never heard that term before Mrzllewellyn. I just spent the last 30 minutes trying to educate myself. I can't even find the term/definition in coin glossaries. https://coins.ha.com/c/ref/glossary.zx

So tell me, what is it and where is it? Where should I be looking?

Those are notches also I have a doubled die reverse 1964 proof dime that you can see little notches in the left side of the letters if you look
