    I'm not saying you don't have a real good one. I'm just giving you something to keep in mind.
    In your case I believe GOD on yours is much more pronounced than the master die doubling (I may be mistaken though). Try to match it! LIBERTY get a good pic of the L

    Wow. Great find. Good job finding that one.
    You actually take the pics thru your iPhone and a magnifying glass?? Gonna try that myself.

    Yes. You also have to have sturdy hands too.

    This is mainly what I use and my iPhone. Once you learn how to get the hang of it and get the right angles, it gets easier. It comes with a plastic piece on the front of it but I took it off to get better focus and pictures. image.jpeg image.jpeg image.jpeg

    Your welcome. I also use about 2 other pennies to prop it up on for better focus and easy photographing of difficult angles and positions. Lots of experimenting. Lol.

    Also, try putting the coin in a plastic flip and then setting the magnifying glass on top of it for clearer pictures. There's most of my secrets lol!

    Die 3 is the most common (in my experience...I just pulled my 11th this week) of the 72 DDOs. Again, take a look a liberty. There should be doubling there as well. I also see some doubling in the date that looks like Die 3.
    I'm almost 100% certain this is die 3.

    Ok, no matter which way I turn it, I just can't see any doubling in LIBERTY or the date at all.

    It's there. Not a lot, but it's there. Did you check out copper coins die 3?
