    physics-fan3.14 You got any more of them.... prooflikes?

    I'm not seeing what you're saying. Could you try taking a couple more pics with different lighting and rotation angles to try and show what you're talking about?

    I'm sorry with my lighting and stuff in my camera that's probably about the best picture I'm going to be able to do the other ones are just too blurry when I try to get a close-up if you look at his eyebrows right down the bridge of his nose on the picture that's there you can see the outlining now I under 25 x magnification you can really see it but I know that doesn't help you

    I cannot make out anything of use from the photos either, but could what you're seeing be described as having sort of a angled sheared appearance? If so, I'm not sure what the technical term would be, but it's a fairly common occurrence.

    After I stuck it under a 200 magnification it's about a quarter inch out from his face all the way down its nose and Chin it looks like an impression into the metal that gives it an appearance to me that it's doubled I don't know if that information helps you any

    if you need 200 X magnification to see anything on a coin, its most likely not anything special. And as far as the OP pictures I don't see anything unusual.

    Even though I'd much prefer to be able to see the anomaly in question, what you're describing does sound like what I tried to explain.

    The doubling that I thought I saw on the coin was without any magnification it was just with my reading glasses on I normally search coins with a 10 or 15 the 200 was just for me to look deeper look into the coin I know pictures sometimes doesn't show what the person looking at the coin but the line that normally runs down the face they're the thickness this one's about four or five times thicker than normal the picture that I provided when you enlarge it on my phone I can see what I'm talking about but there again you know pictures and me having the coins two different things it's probably nothing it's just me being new hoping to find something but I do have one here if you take a look at it I do believe it's a double dear I like to get your opinion on it zcamera-20170520_091226.jpg

    I think it is actually mechanical doubling damage as it has a flattened appearance. The early sixties had a fair amount of this, but before people started seeing doubled dies in almost every coin, it was ignored.
