I believe this is the 1964 Accented Hair Variety with the broken left lower Serif on the I in Liberty, the straight G of designer initials and the irregular bars on the reverse. It also looks like the designers initials are possibly doubled as well but it is still in proof set cello so I am not sure. I just did not want to take out of set just yet. Am I correct about the Accented Hair? Thanks in advance

If it is a soft cello flip, get it out of there. The soft flips contain PVC and turn the color of coins purple, ruining the value of them. The hard flips are much safer. But there is one marker that I see on your coin that shows that is is an accented hair proof. Want to know that it is?

On the image with the 'FG', note the lathe lines on the design? When you see these, then look at the image you have with the stars on it. On the design on the right, that is what I'm talking about.

Ok will do and as always Thanks Coop! I will put it in Saflip. I just received the set yesterday and I noticed it has two small spots on the obverse, I guess just leave it alone?

It is in the original mint packaging or a flip?

Odd how it does look like the bottom left serif on the I is absent but the hair doesn't look the accented variety.

Can't fix a proof coin without ruining the surface. Why damage one of these? Don't put finger prints in the surface. They will be permanent in time. If they are already there, and starting to show, then they are permanent.

Keep it safe in that. It might tone a bit in time, but will keep finger prints away.
