Uniface Obverse, Reverse Die Cap
1964 Kennedy Half, MS63

1964 50C Kennedy Half Dollar -- Reverse Die Cap, Uniface Obverse -- MS63 PCGS. Type Two Reverse. This half dollar likely had a normal first strike, but failed to eject from the dies. A second half dollar flan, not included, was then fed in between the obverse die and the present coin. The next strike forced the present coin to partly wrap around the reverse die, and largely effaced the obverse impression from the first strike. The absence of a mintmark by the branch stem, combined with the 90% silver alloy, indicates the issue is a 1964. Short scratches on the nearly featureless obverse flatten the opposite area beneath the eagle's left (facing) wingtip.
