[QUOTE="chappell28, post: 2498882, member: 79291"]I've been using a $28 USB microscope from Amazon with a $6 flexible lamp from Family Dollar; if I had to buy it all over again, I'd pick a microscope with better resolution than 640x480, but it's better than nothing. Since my last post, I changed bulbs to a smaller watt "clear" bulb and have had much better results. Reduced glare makes it much easier to see what's going on. That's the "Best of" doubled die, true -- but I was thinking something like WDDO-2, which is pictured as the following: [IMG]http://www.doubleddie.com/mediac/450_0/media/96345cbb480e892fffff83adffffe41e.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://www.doubleddie.com/mediac/450_0/media/96345cbb480e892fffff83aeffffe41e.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://www.doubleddie.com/mediac/450_0/media/96345cbb480e892fffff83b0ffffe41e.jpg[/IMG] Much less pronounced. However, thank you guys very much for the information and giving me a lot to chew on -- threads like these may seem mundane for you all, but they help someone like me learn a lot and allow me to be much more discerning in the future. In retrospect, I agree that these coins have worthless (or no) doubling. Just wanted to clear some things up. ;)[/QUOTE]
