Going through some half dollars I came upon this 1964 D Kennedy half and it appears to be the DDR-002. Conneca's master list describes it as follows, Light spread on USOA, the stars under those letters and the stars between the rays. It is circulated but this half fits the description. It also has the RDV-001 straight G.

Thanks Grapes! 1964 D DDR-002 is the only one listed with the RDV-001. I think this is a pretty rare bird.

I do not know which either - but definitely has the notched stars. Nice find.

BTW - pics seem to show a Type I FG:

Thank you, Earle! The only listing with the RDV-001 is the DDR-002.

Thank you, David! I have quite a few Kennedy's and I couldn't believe my eyes when I louped it. There are no pics on Conneca's site so I had to go by their master list. Pretty lucky that there is only one DDR with the RDV-001. That narrowed the choice down pretty quick. I'm sure there are quite a few of these but it only shows a population of one.

There were a lot of issue with the dies that year.

1964-D obverse
Since WMDO-001 is only on P-Mint proof coins, there are no D-Mint examples of WMDO-001 and the D-Mint listings begin with WMDO-002.

No images of what was the issue, but I'm betting the stars were the problem.

Makes you wonder how this affected the type 1 RDV-001 dies that were used at the Denver mint? There is only one DDR from Denver that used the RDV-001. Or is this in reference to the RDV-002 dies? Were the 1964 D WWHR-1,2 and 3 from the RDV-001 or RDV-002 dies?

Have you considered from the CONECA Master Listing, the MDR-001, UVC-039?

Honestly, I have not due to the MDR-001, UVC-039 confirms doubling on the stars from K-4 through K-10. Also, on my coin there are 13 stars that show doubling above the clouds not counting the three below the clouds. Is it your opinion that the MDR-001, UVC-039 is the correct attribution?

My opinion is the photos show a minor 64D DDR. Send it to James Wiles for an attribution if you disagree.

I agree with you, it is definitely minor by any stretch. I guess with not actually being able to physically see what is on the VV's Master List we, novices like me, have a tougher time without knowing what die markers there are to look for.
