<B>19??-? Kennedy Half Dollar--Multiple Struck on Scrap--MS65 PCGS.</B></I> 68 gn. The scrap resembles a half dollar planchet irregularly cut in half. It has a copper core thinly plated on both sides with a nickel alloy. This scrap covered the left half of a die pair, and was struck at least twice. For the first strike, only the scrap was present between dies. For the final strike, a newly fed planchet obstructed the obverse die, causing the obverse design of the present piece to expand and distort.<BR><BR><B>Coin Engraver:</B> Gilroy Roberts and Frank Gasparro<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
