[QUOTE="No_Ragrets, post: 24885806, member: 151874"]I am definitely not in the mindset of "I'm right, you're wrong no matter what" and I humbly realize that I am still a beginner at collecting. However, I am rather good at deciphering information available to me and analyzing data and images, and everything hinges back onto the PCGS images. IMO, they are the baseline for identifying this variety, unless you are saying they are wrong like some others might claim. If not for those PCGS images, I would probably write these off as machine doubling without a second thought. But as it appears through photo comparison, it appears that I potentially have some rather interesting variety coins here. The reasoning to tell me I am mistaken is lacking context (to me, at least) when it comes down to comparing images. Maybe there is something I am missing and completely unaware of? Again, I wholly admit to being new to coin collecting. But I have also done a fair amount of research before joining here, and I am also on other platforms as well for a more in-depth learning experience. Please help educate me, even slightly, and I will add to my knowledge of this addictive little hobby even more. Thank you!! Edit: Could it possibly be die deterioration? If so, then how is one to tell the difference between the two when my images are so similar to the PCGS images?[/QUOTE]
