Here is the problem, With your statement, I want Authentic examples of coinage in my collection. The only fakes I want are because I knew they...
Pat, I am not a pro at taking pics by any means. I use a Rebel T3i 600D. With a 18-55mm macro "capable" lens. I say capable because I shoot raw...
Do you think there was a clash involved. Hence the light B broken nose the formation below the cap, top of fore head, and the heavy polish lines?
From the pictures it is in the correct position, and placement. The pictures on Variety vista are said to be a mid die state. With more specimens...
Some have a speech to shoot option also.
I am not sure how I missed the die crack on DDO-001, after looking a little further. Does your date show the same halo like doubling to the left...
It took a hit in the past 60 years. Not doubled.
Your first pics, really brought out all the bad in the coin, the last one looks more like a 62.
Circulation damage.
Nice luster, good strike, but fell into the wrong place in the bag. MS60
Well, Doggonnit. I do see now the length is a little different. But how often are you gonna get a die break in the same location from wing to rim?...

Was that DDO-003? It lloks like the same die crack on the ear. The MM placement is correct. And the die scratches thru IGWT. An earlier die state...
Dang plus. I thought it was that close to a 64.
It is allways good to here from folks that are more knowledge able. My comprehension skills suck and I am still reading up on the subject....
Here is another one that is worth the read. http://www.coinnews.net/2014/01/06/how-the-denver-mint-makes-dies-to-produce-coins/
