<p>[QUOTE=&quot;thomas mozzillo, post: 3643037, member: 75914&quot;]My first look is with reading glasses, if it looks like anything interesting I use a Bausch &amp; Lomb hand held magnifier. I also use a B&amp;L loupe that has a 5x, 10x and 20x magnification. Very rarely use the 20X.</p><p>RE your 1984 cent IMO it shows mechanical doubling, the obverse was stuck with a slightly misaligned die. I wouldn&#039;t buy a coin with that much damage unless it was a rarity and the price was right. I can live with a cleaned coin (Type coins) and also with one that has slight damage but nothing too obvious.</p><p>I&#039;ve never owned a scope, and for myself, see no reason in buying one. That doesn&#039;t mean I wouldn&#039;t like to have one.</p><p>In response to your last question if it&#039;s a major error IMO the potential value would be decreased but not automatically eliminated.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
