    Need to see the entire coin on both sides and hear what you have to say about what you're seeing.

    No offense, Steve, but you should get out of the habit of taking super close-ups to show an error. If it is any kind of worthwhile error, then we should be able to see it at, say, 20x rather than 200x.
     
  12. I am refering to shiny areas around the eagle's feathers.

    Shiny areas on the reverse -

    Look at the right side of the Eagle's left wing (viewers left)
    Look at the left side of the Eagle's right wing (viewers right)
    .....and look at the Eagle's head.

    Those areas are all shinny and flattened a bit, from contact
    with another coin or object, imo.
