I am sorry for the hassle with the pictures.

 

If you are using a camera, upload the pics to your computer to your "Pictures" file. You will need the USB cable that came with your camera and plug directly into an open USB port on your computer or you can use a USB hub that accepts different types of memory cards, SD,MICRO SD, etc. that the camera card is. Plug the card into the hub.Then go to "My Computer" and find the new device (the card). Find the photo you want, right click and "Send To" Paint. Paint will open with your photo and you can then do whatever you want to it. Once the photos are in the computer, just follow the directions above and you can manipulate the photos any way you want to get the best effect. Once you have the photo the way you want to present it, click here at "upload a file", find it in your picture file, click on it and you are all set to go. Sounds more difficult than it really is but it's a nice tool to use. After awhile it's just like jumping on a bike after years of not riding. It will come to you automatically.

 

I said I found it on eBay I cant get very good pics but can any one tell from these photos

 

I guess Ill just describe the coin. It kind of looks like the second variety, with the S sticking out behind the D but there is also what looks like the top of an S above the D.

 

I'm sorry, I did not realize you were trying to post this from an Ebay photo. Could you paste a link here or give us the item number from ebay. Perhaps we could fool with the pic to give you some better idea.

 

I would except the auction is still active. I think im going to buy it. its in good condition anyway. I will give the link tomorrow when the auction is over.

 

If it's cheap, take a chance. I don't know if the placement is exact, but it looks close to 002.

 

What website?

 

http://www.coppercoins.com/lincoln/diestate.php?date=1944&die_id=1944d1om002&die_state=mds

I'm not saying it's it, just that the mint mark placement on the die looks close.

 

That does look like it but there is what appears to be the top of an s above the D.

 

I think he's a little slow, I gave him that website 19 posts back.

Do you know what we need to see? We need to see a closeup of the date together with the mint mark. From the pics he has here the date looks machine doubled. If it is, fat chance that mint mark isn't.

 

Sorry You posted when I posted I never noticed it but thanks for the link anyways.

 

Hey no problem. I want to see the date. If the date isn't machine doubled you may have a hot one.

 

Shiny, you're either gonna have to bite, pass, or ask the seller for more pics. Just cropping the blurry image so that nothing else is seen doesn't help. You can't fix blurry to make it clear without taking another pic.

 

OK. I think I will take the chance.

 

Jay, he's trying to enlarge eBay pics, these aren't his. I think.

Anyway, Shiny, they're not sharp, but on the zoom-up it really looks to me like those 44s are machine doubled to the NW, same direction that secondary D is going.

 

I think what the OP is seeing is something that looks very similar to OMM-002. Unfortunately from these pics you're not going to know until you get the coin in hand. It does look interesting, and the mint mark location matches up pretty well. If the seller is only asking a few bucks then give it a try. I've done that many times on Ebay. Sometimes I've been able to cherry pick a good variety, and other times I didn't.

 

I've done the same thing Jody. I got an awesome struck through die cap for around $2, and a lot of 2 1950s Denver RPMs for around $3, all from blurry pics. Just took a chance!
