Yep--and I look for a lot of varieties on ebay with fuzzy pictures. Nothing stands out for me--but that doesn't mean it's not there. :)
I'm not seeing an RPD myself. The line on the 1 could be damage or just the lighting. There might be an MPD under the 8...hard to be sure with the...
The RPDs for this year are in close proximity to the date area. At the size of the pic, I can't tell either way.
Because I know a lot more about RPDs on Indian Cents than Shield Nickels, I've been doing some comparing between the two. Today, I just happened...
Wow--nice coin, excellent deal, especially with the MPD!
Good spot Paddy! I used to the OP's picture to see if I could resolve anything else. MPDs are hard to photograph (your shots are great), and I...

And I suspect the die was slightly out of alignment, slowly wearing out faster from 9-12:00.
Yep. Also the flattened ear and IGWT. It's been buffed so hard as to lose a significant amount of metal.
Thanks Bing. CCF? No, I've moved on myself...all done with that. :rolleyes:
Well..."creepy" wasn't what I was after--even if I posted it on that "other site"--just for fun; the same reason I now post on this forum... ;)
Yes...I'm shooting tethered in "live view", so the mirror is up. From running tests, I've found that mirror bounce degrades the image noticeably....
Jim, I'm happy you found my advice useful--that's all the thanks I really need. :) Good question about how you should ship the coin, as I'm not...
