I recently got some silver half dollars as a gift and was looking through them for varieties. This half dollar caught my eye. It looks like there is some doubling on Kennedy's face and the designer's initials. However, I wasn't able to see any doubling on the date or motto (but I've also never seen pictures of the doubling on the text, so I don't really know what it looks like). Let me know your thoughts!

Kennedy half dollars had a number of years with doubled working hubs. The two prominent ones are explained in the Wexler article below as WWHO-001 and -002. Many working dies might have been manufactured with those hubs.

Note that Variety Vista and CONECA seem to still list those coins as individual DDO varieties. In actuality, the clusters of similar listings were probably struck by different dies manufactured with the same two doubled hubs.
