1964-D D/D/D Kennedy Half Dollar

[atrox001]

I received this half dollar from Jose’ Cortez’s collection a couple of years ago…there is quite an interesting history regarding it. John Wexler has listed it has WRPM-008 Horizontal and North, I believe Ken Potter has it listed has VCR#15/RPM#10 D/Horizontal D and D North, and CONECA doesn’t recognize it has an RPM. Perhaps this forum would be a good place to discuss this half dollar…any opinions whether or not this would be an RPM?

Thank You,

Larry:

My concern when I first saw this piece almost 10 years ago, was that there were no serifs to give the "curved" images any context. There is not enough evidence to prove this is an RPM. My philosophy is to err on the side of caution. So unless the evidence says it is probable, not just possible, I don't list it in the CONECA files.

Thanks,

James Wiles
