I'm in!!! This will be fun. I missed it last year.
I'm guessing 12 edited.. I counted from the top down. The above is my corrected guess.
Sorry to burst your bubble. It is machine doubling. A doubled mintmark is the first tell tale sign of machine doubling. A die has the mintmark...
Thank you John. You confirmed my suspicion. I have no input, LOL
This is my first time posting anything regarding ancients. It is far from my interest and knowledge base. I have no idea of how the dies were...
What part of the country are you in? I'm in the Portland, OR area and I find almost no pre-82 pennies through Loomis. My theory is the Portland...
Yes it would be nice to have EFSC. Nikon included that on the D810, which was a bit out of my price range at $3000.00. For now I can get by with...

Welcome to the Bizarro thread!! "That coin has far too much detail". "Put it in your pocket for a couple of months." "It will not grade as low...
Here is a focus stacked image of the reverse of a Walking Liberty Half Dollar. The relief is to high for a single exposure. The lens I use is...
I'd say the top images are the better ones. They were lit with multiple lights versus the bottom images which was a single light source. Not...
I don't know if you listen to Coin Show Radio, but Matt seems to be a buyer on some really nice coins. I'd probably contact him, he may have...
I'd say yes, absolutely to both. I can see notching in the R and S in both. They do not have shelf like appearances and look consistent to a...
