I just had a guy (he just deals in silver, not numismatics) pull out a box full of 1964 Kennedy's and said I could look through all of them and have any I wanted for $6 each. Is there an easy way to spot accented hair? I have to see them side by side to tell the difference and it's still not easy.

@NC08, here is a prior CCF thread that may be of some interest (especially the discussion by @oih82w8):

Accented hair is on Proof halves. He probably has business strike halves.
