Skitter strike. A little MD. But I can see why you would ask.

I have to disagree, I believe it's a DD, but I have been known to be wrong!

Interesting so far. If I saw those notches and separation lines on a Lincoln I'd be hard pressed not to call it a DDO. I see endless MD on Lincolns and it pretty much doesn't show up like this does on the Kennedy. So, while I don't plan on switching to Kennedy's anytime soon I would like to understand why this is MD. I did check a couple of actual DDO's before I posted and they seem to have pretty similar separation in pretty similar locations and thus I figured I'd just better ask of those who know far more than I. Thanks for the answers and help! |

Definitely hub doubling. Whether it is a doubled die or a doubled master die, I can't tell you, I don't know much about half dollar varieties.

There is a single doubled master die listed for 1964 proof in Wexler's catalog but I don't know what it looks like to compare it.

Looks like a doubled die. I searched a roll of business strike '64 halves and found 3 doubled dies that showed notching on IGWT so I think minor doubling like yours is fairly common.

On the reverse the FG looks doubled but the stars seem to have four of them clearly visible.  |

If it is a proof, it looks like WDDO-002. Doubling is similar, and it references some master die doubling on the obverse, which is what it looks like. http://doubleddie.com/1598977.html |

Well done CoinColletor2000! Die marker is there and it is clearly a quadruple double die reverse WDDR-002 (FS-802) with master die doubled obverse WMDO-002.
Thanks all for the help, it is greatly appreciated. Gonna have to think about sending for grading as it looks pretty darn nice.
