1999 p leaf

I thought so. Lottery tickets. It's a safer bet. I kid you not.

Be careful with those as they use too much sharpening and other jpeg stuff and creates artificial artifacts .. ie, makes ppl think things are there when there’s not.

 

Can you give me a better suggestion for a beginner? One that's not so expensive.

 

Education is free and it will keep you from wasting time looking for error coins that dont exist in pocket change.

 

You have ALL the best questions, Shanequa. In general, unless you make an unusual score somehow, cheap magnification ain't good, and good magnification ain't cheap. I wish it were otherwise too.

 

I use my cell phone to look at things in detail. zoom in or use an app that allows better zoom than the standard app.

I use a free app called "mag light" which does a good job. But once again, you need LIGHT.

The MAIN problem people have in taking a picture is being in an area that is sufficiently lit. As in good bright lighting. Lighting for the "camera" and not your "eye". But usually you can see well enough with a good cell phone image if it is properly lit.

Most people are in a hurry. By being in a hurry you can guarantee the image will be poor and will cause more questions than answers.

I really don't understand why people zoom in 10,000x to look at microscopic imperfections that look like numbers in the surface and think it's an Error.

 

Huh. So I guess I need to cancel my order for my scanning electron microscope then?

 

Go Ahead.
I'm building a Halon / Silver/Gold/Copper collider to inspect coins.

 

I do pretty good with those too!

 

So, like, since the main loop of the supercollider at CERN crosses the Franco-Swiss border six times, why don't the beams need to stop for Customs?

 

It's all relative .

 

The Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle. Once it stops at the border, the Customs Agents can never be certain of its location. Maybe Schrodinger’s cat can help find it.
