    Found this 2010 d while coin roll hunting. Thought it was pretty interesting. Seems Lincoln has and eye problem. It seems to be covered or hidden. What do you all think?

    My eyes are worse than Lincoln's. Can you post a close-up?

    physics-fan3.14 You got any more of them.... prooflikes?

    I don't see anything abnormal about this coin. Could you describe in a little more detail what you are seeing?

    It looked to me as though the small open slit where you see the eyeball is closed. I compared it to many other coins. I am by no stretch of the imagination a pro. To be hoest I have read so many books and viewed so many coins via internet just trying to get familiar with definitions and termonology. I won't say I could be looking too hard at each coin, but it is possible.

    Thank you. Can you tell me what is the best placement for my light source. I am not sure if it should be placed behind my computer or left ot right of it. I am using a laptop with a usb microscope photo caputure. I error hunt for sure but also enjoy the pretty coins. I am new and would like to post with some expertise so as not to look the fool. So any suggestions to improve the photo capture or anything else that would help woild be much appreciated.
