Hi,

After going through about $ 450 worth of Kennedy halves last evening I landed four coins that have some potential.

The 64 is a no brainer but the other three may or may not be decent finds depending upon what the CC says.

Please comment on the two 74's letters from the word TRUST on the obverse.

I am also showing a picture of the 72D's reverse where the FG normally would appear but I had some concerns about that small dot that appears in the same vicinity.

In summary please let me know what you think I have or do not have.
Any feedback w/r/t rarity or value would also be appreciated.

thanks

Top one certainly is a doubled die. Second one looks like Die Deterioration Doubling, especially if that's a full shot of the coin there.

As for the no FG variety, I can't see enough from that picture to make an honest guess as to if it is or not. My gut tells me no, as there must be absolutely no trace of either letter. I'll let someone else chime in more in that regard, though...

1st one is DDO, 2nd and 3rd picture I don't think so. 4th one is a no FG from Die Deterioration I think.

Nice find with the doubled die!
The no FG is a tricky one.... we have sent a few in, and if there's even a trace (like the dot) they wouldn't label it no FG....
