That's really an amazing find--considering its visibility and popularity (how did CAC miss that?) Big congrats!
I see it now--the 0/0 is an exact match for the S11 in my book--how did I miss that? :) I should've just gone by what I saw right off. The 9...
I agree--it looks like damage from a (crude) encasement. Fortunately it wasn't an 1897 "1 in Neck" :) [IMG]
This is a fun one--a threepence with a large die gouge in the shield (arrows). Something struck the die hard enough to raise metal around the...
The 1882 Snow-1 is different because it's been researched/documented. It's also has the "look" of many other RPDs--clear definition and good...
That is most definitely an RPD. It's the 1882 Snow-1, which explains why bidding got so high. Compare the RPD in the enlarged pic below to the S-1...
Wow--that 42 Walker DDR is a real score for just $27.
Yep, grades around EF45. I picked it up for $15. :D
More pictures of MD on bronze IHCs would probably be educational for collectors here. :) Most of the MD I've seen is on the CuNi cents, in...
Well, I'm guessing the OP has looked closely and concluded they're raised. It's sorta hard to tell from a picture, although I notice the scratches...
This was a recent find on ebay. This is one of my favorite doubled dies that I've found. I lucked out, getting it for a steal because the seller's...
I see something in the lower loop of the last 0, but I'm unsure about what it is. It may well be some die chatter. RPDs on Indian Cents normally...
Wow--that's certainly the most scratches I've seen on a Lincoln cent--and some look deep! I just found an Indian Cent with a large die gouge--I'll...
Doug points out an important difference between dSLRs and most point-and-shoots: you may not have a "manual" setting on the inexpensive cameras....
Well...it was just meant as feedback from someone super-obsessive over image sharpness. :) The focus is roughly centered on the coin, after which...
That's one super doubled die--I especially like the doubled snake! I have seen this one before, unsure of value though. Regarding your pics,...
They're famous for carving this structure at Petra...you've probably seen it in movies. [IMG]
I should clarify...all the software can do is focus-stack, build a depth map, and create the simulation as stills and video. It cannot process any...
Thanks! :) That would take some more sophisticated 3D modeling software. It's beyond the capabilities of Helicon Focus' 3D Viewer.
Nice portrait of Julia Domna. I wish I could find coins like this. :D
