I can't believe I found my second 2013P-1DO-003 Lincoln Shield Cent in pocket change in less than a month. I posted my first one here: http://www.cointalk.com/threads/just-found-2013p-1do-003-lincoln-shield-cent.229555/ Here is the coppercoins link: http://www.coppercoins.com/lincoln/diestate.php?date=2013&die_id=2013p1do003&die_state=eds
There is distortion and extra thickness on the date. Check out the coppercoins link. The pics on there are awesome. It would be easier for you to go there than for me to try to get permission from Bob to post his pics on here. I can't adjust the lights on my USB scope so the really shiny coins are very hard for me to get good pics of. The glare kills me. The old, brown coppers show up better
I had the same problem with my usb microscope. a couple layers if paper towel with a hole in the middle and some E-Tape later and the problem is solved... mostly.
