<p>[QUOTE="desertgem, post: 3130760, member: 15199"]A flat photographic image of only a portion of a coin will usually be inconclusive unless it is an extreme separation doubling . Most of the minute doubling that is shown is machine induced, but it is very hard to tell as to the type. If you have seen the photo " Face on mars" geological formation, astronomers can see the whole area surrounding it. If you took just that small clip of the face alone, and asked what it represented, people would assume it was on earth and man made. The difference between multiple hubbing and single squeeze is like that. And answers should reflect that fact ( my personal feeling).</p><p> One poster asked to see the whole coin, but you were not inclined to show it, so that raises concern as to the purposes. you want to learn specific differences without first learning the normal. yes that would be faster, but Ebay and You Tube are filled with people who try that and are largely wrong . </p><p>Hope you stick around.
