    Are those photographs or rendered drawings?
    They all look like drawings.

    And not even 24 hours later, good old Waggers breaks his promise about not posting anymore of his incessant delusions regarding the 69-S.

    Does the coin displayed in this thread look familiar to anyone?

    This is at least the 14th thread on the same damned thing, and out of a total of 18 threads he's created. If this isn't a clear cut example of needless ignorant trolling, especially considering the fact he just returned from an involuntary vacation, I don't know what is.

    But who knows that the big one is? Have you seen a real picture? Nope, didn't think so. Just images. ;)

    This an image. You can tell from the background which obviously is a computer screen). For more trained eyes, you can tell by the scale of the elements in comparison with a photograph. As for those who have some concrete knowledge in Photoshop and C.A.D will confirm the way the letters ''pop'', was without a doubt enhanced, or at the very least, perfected. In my opinion, if I saw this kind of work in the last semester of photoshop 1 at college level, I would give it a grade of D-. It's obviously photoshopped, which defeats its very purpose. However, that's not obvious to most people, obviously.

    Not sure how the image looking photoshopped degrades from the purpose of the photo. The photo has the purpose of showing a person what a real 1969 Doubled Die looks like. Maybe if you would use pictures such as this one, we wouldn't have multiple ridiculous threads daily.

    No further comments from me.. I don't want any problems with the moderators. This issue concerning your Cent is a waste of time.

    Just an FYI to correct the comments about the picture of the 1969-S from @Mr. Waggers . It is from PCGS CoinFacts. The Coin used is the PCGS MS-64 example sold by Heritage in 2008. The diagnostic is the toning area behind the head and under the word IN

    This is an actual coin.

    Mr. Waggers , if I was you I would send the coin in to a grading company to have verified for your own personal satisfaction. It does not look like the 69-s coin . you would be doing yourself a favor to get it looked at by a grading company. I am sure you must believe that you have a early doubled die from the many posting I have seen of what appears to be the same Lincoln penny. From what I read on your posts is that somehow you do not seem to like what you hear from the members here. Sometimes it is really hard to tell from a photo , and see exactly what you are able to see having the coin in hand. You have had numerous opinions which you seem to disregard , so we would all like to see what your coin comes back as from the grading company. It is a little expensive to have verified , however at least it would give you some peace of mind. Good luck !

    If they were actual photographs as the pic above, we could at least compare. But your '' photos" are computer-illustrated creations, and therefore, disqualifies as they are "fantasy images" such as car stickers, images of a transformer, barbie doll's plastic ID card, or refrigerator magnets.

    If only Mr. Perfect here could wrap his great mind around the concept of glamour shots. But no... instead we get the most asinine excuse imaginable as to why his garbage isn't the garbage everyone knows it to be.

    Gemmy has been very kind to you, Waggers, but also made it very clear that the nonsense must end. The choice is yours, but if you have any desire to remain a member here, you would be wise to drop the crap and make an honest effort to show there's another side to you. Just consider it food for thought.

    So, if I understand you correctly, because the PCGS CoinFacts is not a "picture" by your definition, it should not be used as an aide in identifying an authentic 1969-S DDO and the differences we see between the CoinFacts pic and your "photograph" in post #15 are not real. Is that correct?

    OP, what the difference between Doubled Die, Mechanical Doubling and Die Deterioration?

    Thank you for your kind message. I think the question surrounding the facts establishing whether my coin ( you may think the same coin was repetitively posted, au contraire, I own about about 30 specimen of 1969-S LMC ) is a "doubled-die" or not, is way besides the point at this time. I even wonder if it has ever been.

    The photos that were put on by the other member were pictures of an actual coin. to find one in that condition like the other photos would be rare . However I did notice some for sale on eBay that were certified . Maybe you can use those to match up with your coin. I hope you have one. It does seem that any lower grade 69-s doubled die are really not worth a large amount of money , and sell in the 200 dollar range for ones that look to be in better condition then yours. Like I said it is really hard to see what your seeing in your pictures. Maybe try the eBay sites and match your penny to those . Maybe you could send it in to have verified. Possibly take it in to a local coin shop to get their opinion as one member suggested to do. Everyone is here to try and help , but there are some that get frustrated simply because you do not value their opinions. This is understandable. To avoid this and get good positive results you have to go beyond and either send it in get opinions from people in the know who can physically look at your coin in person. From your photos it is hard to see what you see. Please try matching your coin to those for sale on eBay , or any other site that has sold one or has one . This may help you make an informed decision. Good Luck I hope you have one.
