<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Get Real, post: 2542283, member: 81585&quot;]Don&#039;t give up interest, this is a very interesting and time consuming hobby. There is a lot to learn so don&#039;t expect to do so over night so don&#039;t get discouraged.</p><p>Magnification and Photography are subjective topics and everyone has their own opinions, likes &amp; dislikes, needs and interest. All I can recommend to you is to get a couple different handheld magnifiers, somewhere in the 5x to 30x range depending on what your interest is in collection coins. If errors are your thing then I suggest getting some type of a microscope which will help confirm if in fact you do have an error or some PMD or MD. If this is going to be a hobby for you then keep it simple. There are many, many, many types of magnifiers out there so find one that best suits your needs and always buy the highest quality that you can afford. Same goes for a camera.</p><p><br /></p><p>To my knowledge there are 2 well known and recognized errors for the year (1982) and 1 that is not so recognized. They are listed below.</p><p><br /></p><p>1982 LG DT BRONZE DDO - Well Recognized by TGPs, Very Noticeable error.</p><p>1982 SM DT ZINC DDR - Well Recognized by TGPs, Very Noticeable error.</p><p>1982-D - Not recognized by TGPs,Very Minor error.</p><p><br /></p><p>The coin in the picture that you posted here is a 1982-D. The picture that you posted is not clear enough to say that it is one of these coins and it appears that the coin has heavy wear on it so even if it is it would be hard to prove.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
