New pictures for 1921. There is an excellent set of three articles starting with The Coinage of 1921, Part One on the NGC site. The author points...
I confess I paid a bit more than usual for this coin, but they are hard to find. This just arrived in an old ANACS holder as an MS62. This looks...
The macro attachment may be worth trying. The iPhone 6s is what I have, too. It has a fixed wide-angle lens. If you hold the camera at its...
I recently posted new photos of 1919 in post #4157 , so I am going to skip past them. These are new pictures of the 1920 series that upgrade the...
Post your coin photography set-up is a thread that many have contributed to. It helped me just to read through it. There are a number of points...
I don't want to rain on anybody's parade, but I bought this as a "GEM BU RED" within the last year for $16.20. If the grades don't fall where you...
These were already posted in #4075, and discussed in the thread "Lincoln 1918 - Guess the mint". These are all new pictures, now that I'm longer...
I just cannot capture this 1917 Philadelphia cent's personality with a camera. In hand, the reverse's luster radiates beneath a deep maroon color....
I can see that your 1925-D is a different die pair than mine. On this one, the left edge of the D is to the left of the 2. On yours, the D is...
The 1916 was posted earlier. Here is the full year set. The 1916-D has some sort of crack running from the middle of the head all the way through...
I prefer an RB to full red, but it's hard to find someone who sells them. The red coins are plentiful after the mid-30's and apparently there is...
OK, that is amazingly lustrous and I love the blue coloring. You drove me back to the camera to see if I could enliven my 1914 to show half of...
Still looking for the branch mints for 1914. You can go online and find a ton of 1909-S VDB's, but just try finding a 1914-S. And the cost of a...
Excellent points. I knew I was off base on the "taking home" part. If nothing else the coin is obviously circulated, so it reached its intended...
In addition, there is a die clash on the reverse running through the C in CENT.

That all sounds exactly sound to me. I have worked in metal-working in my 20's and still have a bunch of hardened bits, drills, and files in the...
I'll give the file theory some more thought, but I'll need to get some time to work with the images. I'd already proposed a partial theory...
I'm with Dave here. Many years ago I worked on a software project with a small team. At every design meeting we were all sure we understood the...
I like the overlay, but look at the photos of the holder on DLRC. The reverse does not align with the obverse. When I originally realigned the...
