I think that many would agree to you about presentation and a number of folks liberate slabbed coins for many reasons. I prefer unslabbed myself,...
Less is more. Take your photo with the coin in the field of view rather than zooming into the space between devices. The dot is large enough to...
Fun coins!! Was there a reason why you liberated those coins? Just curious.
I agree: placement does not look optimal. Further, I cant be certain that's a 'dot' or a spot. As noted above by one of our fellow enthusiasts,...
Hi Keith - how are you taking the photos? You should be able to take qualifying photos using a camera on a cellphone. You need to steady the...
It looks like DDO with MD. The MD messes up the eye a bit, but clear doubling on the letters. I have a bunch of these coins...perhaps almost a...
A DD coin could also be affected by MD. Maybe two things going on here. Can we get the full obverse?
With hand placement, a little greasefill, lighter strike....maybe one got past the three reviewers. A little unlikely, but I was thinking it was...
Unfortunately, it doesn't look like there are established markers. But the general appearance is there...perhaps affected by a hit and/or stage...
Yes...that 1913 would make for a fine addition to your collection...like the 1882. I agree with your assessment. Timing on building this series...
Keep in mind that many National Parks have hand presses to distort a cent to make your own souvenir. Under some conditions, it's quite easy to...
On this angle, I can see some machine damage on the outer edges of the devices. When the die wobbles a tiny bit, only thousandths of an inch, it...
What I see here are contact marks, probably from being in a bag with thousands of other cents. The L looks like a dull hit mark where as a...
Furry is probably right, especially for starting out on the Variety coin hunt. Too much magnification is worse than too little I suppose. Under...
I think that you can post photos in a conversation. I don't recall though if I've done that. I'll send you a message to see if it works.
It is challenging at the start, but in a couple of months, you'll be in a much better position. Wexler's site is a really helpful site regarding...
A couple of thoughts. Regarding acetone, I often use it to stabilize a coin that may have been handled with oily fingers. High grade...
Thanks for that. I knew that there were two S varieties, one with the MM above and the other with the MM below the ribbon. I thought I saw an S...
I think that with each step, you are getting to a better point in developing your eye for varieties/errors. It takes some practice, and this...
I think when it comes to photography, you have a nice head start. What the community needs is some direction from you. Let us know what you are...
