Nqsss Valued Member United States 143 Posts	Posted 06/13/2019 12:20 pm I scanned through the entire box of half dollar coins last night and I found this coin. I looked on the multiple angles and did not see any marks of the FG initials. I need a second eyes to look through it again. Please help me out. Report this Post to the Staff

atrox001 Valued Member United States 311 Posts	Posted 06/13/2019 2:26 pm In James Wiles book, The Kennedy half dollar Book, he shows three different abraded dies for the 82P Kennedy. Attached photos are ones in my collection. 82P ADR-001 FG of designer's abraded away, with lower serifs of 1 of date abraded away. 82P ADR-002 FG of designer's partially abraded away. 82P ADR-003 F of designer's abraded away. Yours look to be the 82P ADR-001. Edited by atrox001 06/13/2019 2:28 pm Report this Post to the Staff
