The mintmark on your coin looks low. Here is a picture of the mintmark compared to the one at Varietyvista. The one on my coin does look slightly lower and a bit farther to the left.

levelsofmadnes Pillar of the Community United States 3003 Posts	Posted 09/22/2020 06:23 am Hello Grelko, I do NOT think this coin is a doubled die. Lots of Die Deterioration and the O in GOD looks more like Machine Doubling. The "IN" looks like a strike issue; either low pressure or grease. I dont look at a lot of Kennedy half dollars. Maybe atrox001 can help out. Report this Post to the Staff
Grelko Valued Member United States 232 Posts	Posted 09/22/2020 06:46 am I'm thinking it's Machine Doubling on the O also. The W is the only place that looked doubled on both of the half dollars I posted. I haven't been able to match either of them to a known double. I don't look at many of half dollars either, the bank happened to have a few yesterday, so I got them. Report this Post to the Staff
