2 "Heads" Kennedy Half?

I guess this seller had another bright idea , about a month ago his ebay feedback show him selling a reverse/reverse Kennedy ([eBayItem]200330418618[/eBayItem]), why waste the parts he machined off, when he could make a obverse/obverse Kennedy and sell it to another ebay victim. Very green thinking recycle the parts of the coins he destroyed and take in some more $$$$.

The seller even suggests that the coin is not seamed in the middle, because he knows he seamed it at the rim...

Sure looks like a lip to me.....

How do people get away with this type of thing? Let alone sleep at night. Doesn't anyone believe in Carma? I can't understand why someone would intentionally rip someone off.

I am not an expert on the minting process but from what I have read and heard this isn't even possible at the US Mint because the dies will not interchange (Obverse die will not fit where the Reverse die goes). If people would try to read up a little before they fall for these things they would save themselves allot of headaches. From what I have heard it would be like trying to put a square peg in a round hole, it just will not fit to make a double headed coin

Not impossible but helped along by unscrupulous mint employees.

There is a quarter dollar with two reverses that has been authenticated. The dies indicate that they are vintage 1965 or so.

There also is one 1859 two headed Indian Head cent that has been authenticated. Again, it is felt that this coin was helped along by an employee of the Mint.

The very few real coins that are "two-headed" and "two-tailed" are incredibly rare but they do exist. It is highly likely that any that are out there have been found.

It is 99.9999% the case that anytime a coin like this is found that it is a novelty item that many call a Magician's coin.

I just wanted to point out that there are a few real ones but they won't turn up in rolls of coins.

Thanks,
Bill
