rlu7732 Valued Member United States 291 Posts	Posted 10/01/2025 6:40 pm I saw a few older postings about the Type 1 Reverse, Straight G for the 1964 Kennedy Proof Half Dollar and was trying to confirm if this is it. References: https://www.ngccoin.com/variety-plu...date/820152/ http://varietyvista.com/12%20Kenned...arieties.htm Also, do collectors find these different reverse types valuable?

Brandmeister Pillar of the Community United States 6616 Posts	Posted 10/01/2025 7:47 pm I believe that collectors pay attention to the straight G reverse because it was paired with the accented hair obverse variety. The straight G reverse design was used on other dies as well, but I don't know if it is particularly valuable on its own. A Kennedy half expert like atrox might know. Report this Post to the Staff

Interesting because I really don't see the "Enhanced" hair line on this example. Report this Post to the Staff
