LOL...you gave me a flashback to sitting in my parents station wagon pouring over rolls of cents to find all the wheatbacks we could before they...
Finding a small date in circulation is a pretty rare event. I regularly follow CRH enthusiasts over the years, and out of millions of cents...
Was it a '69 Vista Cruiser?? ;-) I like the look of that car...especially the glass.
Paddy is correct. The subject coin displays the characteristics of a laundered coin. The reeds are gone because it was turning on its edge. The...
Sounds like you have another hobby you are unaware of. :-)

Here's a setup that might give you some thoughts - Simple iPhone 5 on weighted can (filled with half dollars) set at optimal distance to limit the...
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...
