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...
A nice old thread. I appreciate those pictures of true doubling. I've noticed that at the Canada and Coins site, there are many examples of MD...
Looking at Variety Vista, I don't see anything that matches. The pictures are a bit out of focus and there is some glare dancing about. The I in...
