    Hi Everyone,

    Been feeling under the weather these days especially today. Anywhooo, nothing keeps me from searchin. But this one I've had for awhile and in reviewing my coins I'd thought I'd share. And would like your opinion on it.
    Its a 1993 and if you click on each pic a couple times to zoom in you can see the beard is extended out and there seems to be another earlobe below the ear. I see what looks like suttle doubling also in LIBERTY. There seems to be doubling in IN GOD WE TRUST...especially TRUST. But I've been wrong before (wont say how many times lol). But take a look see and let me know what you think. Your feedback is appreciated. Thanks everyone! Did my best on the picture taking but I know I can do better but as I said, feeling under the weather. Remember to click on the pic to get a zoomed look see.

    Any way you can get a straight on shot? Maybe arrange the lighting differently or something? Angled shots make errors/doubling harder to see IMO.

    I can see where you're coming from on the tip of Lincolns beard

    It's a minor die chip. Interesting, but nothing major. You might could sell it for a buck to someone who collects interesting die breaks/chips.

    Yes, I thought of that but can you see the ear and the doubling on letters? I'll have to take much better pics tomorrow. When I exported the pics from the camera to computer and it enlarged on screen I can really see doubling on all those areas. The first pic I above is the better pic right now. I post better ones in better light. And as lincolncent said more straighter shot. Stay tuned.
