Better and I personally think your usb optical card's limits are being tested, maybe even the lenses. Starting a new thread away from the attribution pix and the rest of the coin? Ranks in there with not getting the pix rotated reasonably.
https://www.cointalk.com/threads/1962-d-lmc-ddr-001-a-t.298778/ look again, he is getting much closer to matching this one up with 001, if it is, it certainly isn't the same die stage as the coin attributed for it. off the hip, I'm guessing earlier but not enough info to be certain.
The Wexler example has the point at the top of the "A" like this one, it is almost a die imperfection? The Wexler coin has small marks on the "A" cross bar. It would have to be extra special PMD to not get other letters or the surface of the coin. Just saying. My optics are rudimentary, read cheap, so when I get a "bright" specimen, it can't handle it; I tried to make a camera filter work to kill the shine, but got reflection off the filter; maybe new optics down the road. Thanks for all the input
Take a look at the pix Tanton has posted, snapped through a nice B&L tiny loupe using his Iphone. See if you can scrap a pair of not-scratched polarized sun glasses and make a pair of filters that you can rotate one to the other. It may help your rig. This picture almost does it, rotation and cropping perhaps aside.
