JFK? It might be a statement piece denote the amazing coincidences between the two. The disfigurement on the head(wrong side) may show the massive blow out due to the assassin's bullet(not I did not say "Oswald's bullet").

I remember when they made those things. I think they even advertised them on TV. Like it was mentioned earlier it came with something that told about the similarities between Kennedy and Lincoln.

Over the years I've pulled about 20 of these cents from rolls (without the head damage).

And one imaginative person put a similar face of Lincoln looking at Kennedy on a Half.
