The reason I posted this was because all of the markers for the SMS, accented hair are on the reverse. Broken rays, straight G with no horizontal sherf, The B on Liberty on the obverse show another possible marker. Thanks for your input and knowing what it is! @Coinfrog

But the accented hair is a proof die, not a business strike die.  So markers only apply of they are on a variety. If they are not there, then it is not that variety. But it maybe normal design for a different series.

Regular strike, not SMS, definitely not Proof for the Accent Hair Variety, to these eyes.

@coop, I have five of these half dollars and fifteen from the Denver mint with the exact same reverse. Broken rays, G with no horizontal sherf. Why would some of these have this reverse while all of my others have solid rays and the G has a horizontal sherf? I have read a great deal about the Denver mint using the the same reverse die as the Philadelphia mint but these coins aren't recognized. Are they just regular ole Kennedy's?

Oops - Sorry, I made a mistake in my graphic - there were no "circulation" 70-Ds made - just mint set. I need to change that sometime.
