coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 12/24/2022 3:16 pm That is Machine Doubling on the Eye area. Note the contour is removed, the 90 degree affect on that area? As you mentioned, Machine Doubling on that area. Possible medium bounce after the strike. Report this Post to the Staff

Thank you for the reply everyone. silviosi, I have read a few of your post and you seem me to be a somewhat of a Kennedy half dollar expert. If no double eye since 61. Do you agree with coop and I on the Machine Doubling?: Thank you again for taking time to reply Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 12/29/2022 12:16 pm Note the striation lines on the MD areas. Even the edge of the face is showing these. (where the movement of the dies, leaves these fine lines) Report this Post to the Staff
