[QUOTE="USS656, post: 323479, member: 6641"]Played with the scope today at lunch. It was an interesting study. Took pictures of: A circulated 38P A circulated 40P two of the better 39P's - I picked one of the 39's because I think it is the only chance at a 38 reverse. What I noticed is that the furthest right door (Northwest Piazza door) seems more pointed on top and narrower (like a pointed bullet) on the 40 reverse. The 38 reverse seems to be more rounded and slightly wider. Now all of this can be just the result of different wear patterns - just trying to figure it out. The settings and position of the coins under the scope were not not changed from coin to coin. WARNING - very large pictures [URL]http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee123/USS656/38P1.jpg[/URL] [URL]http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee123/USS656/40P1.jpg[/URL] [URL]http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee123/USS656/39P12.jpg[/URL] [URL]http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee123/USS656/39P13.jpg[/URL][/QUOTE]
