    64 P Kennedy Uncirculated

    I have an Uncirculated 1964 P Kennedy half dollar that has the reverse of the proof coin of the same year. (broken rays at stars under UNUM and straight G in engravers initials - no serifs)

    Since both where struck in Philly, I'm assuming this might be a die transition coin.

    Any information on this coin would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you,

    Mike

    The reverse die variety RDV-001 (Straight G) is found on both business strikes and proofs for the 64 and 64D Kennedy's. They are refered to as transitional.

      Thanks Larry.

      Any information on the mintage numbers/scarcity or is this considered a common coin?

        Funny you mention the reverse was used on both Denver and Philly struck circulating coins.

        The coin I have has a small raised line, looks like part of the the bottom and corner of the D, exactly where the mint mark would be located. Did they alter the Denver die (remove the D) and then strike Philly coins with it and possibly leave part of the D?
