Went to a coin show and picked up a proof mint set with this proof set was this 1964 Proof Kennedy half accented hair variety. Picked the set up for 20 bucks. Money well spent.

Jim, read your title as "half accented hair", the only ones I've been able to find are full accented hair

The funny part is I find it a lot easier to tell an accented hair variety by the side burns than the hair over the ear. The accented hair, as can be seen in Coop's pic, has weak sideburns. The normal half could be called the accented sideburns variety LOL!

It was a request to enhance the hair by Jackie. That is why it's stronger on that die/hub. They have the same markers, so if maybe one die or more that have the accented hair.

On markers for the accented hair, there as a few:

But the easiest to see is on the reverse. Lathe lines are on the feathers on these:
1964-Proof-Kennedy-Half-Accented-Hair-Variety.
These are the seen on the reverse.

Yes this it is an accentuated hair. @Jim Nice pick up, congratulation. You spot well the I in the Liberty. The hairs design show but strike by strike more hard to see. The "I" it is the main marker on all stages of the Die. Happy for you.

You have an relative late stage die, with no CAM and coin at IMO 67.

Excellent pick-up Jim. Congrats.

And I see what you mean Earl42. Those sideburns are a great pick-up.
