Hello. My name is Chris. I would say that my favorite coin, (also the coin I am most familiar with) is the 1964 Kennedy half. I am especially fanatical of the Accented Hair proofs. So, I have several Accent Hairs that I have set aside, or graded as DDO, DDR's. I am getting the exact variety out of the Cherry pickers guide, NGC's variety attribution, and also PCGS's population report on 1964 AH Kens with DDO's, or DDR's. The DDO's for AH's listed in the CPG, NGC, and PCGS are very easy to attribute, with any experience and a trained eye. So I have 2 Accented Hairs that are both EXTREMELY good DDO's but ABSOLUTELY NOT IN THE CPG, OR RECOGNIZED BY NGC, OR PCGS. That usually wouldn't mean anything, as there are probably 10-20 very minor varieties, just for 1964 Kennedy proofs alone that are not listed/recognized/etc because they are so minor and insignificant... Here is some perspective, for any of you who know anything about the 1964 Kennedy varieties, proofs for instance, the regular 1964 Ken proof DDO that is strongest, and most desirable (according to CPG, and NGC) is the FS-101, or DDO-002. These two AH's I have that I am talking about, are very similar, if not the same Doubling as the regular kennedy proof just mentioned. So, Im wondering if anyone can give any insight on where a guy like me could go to report this variety, and possibly get it "discovered" and recognized by anyone, goal being the TPG's... any advice would be awesome. I know that there are a billion varieties, and that it wouldn't be feesable to list them or acknowledge them all, but this one is as strongly doubled as the one that is supposedly "the best, and most desired" but yet there isn't anything about it anywhere.... so I would like to look into to sharing it with the numiscommunity, and eventually having it possible to attribute with NGC/PCGS!!!
Thanks. -PS. I will do my best to get pics, it is very difficult for me as I do not have professional photo equip, and plus the coins are both newly slabbed, which makes pictures of proofs even more impossibly. but again, the doubling is almost identical to the FS-101, or DDO-002, only mine are Accented Hairs, whereas that one is just the normal kennedy. I have one of those too, Ill try to post pics of it as well, for comparison.
Thank you in advance.
