This is definitely not a proof set as I have P, D, and S in this set. Cool coins none the less. All but the nickel have errors unless you count the nickel having no stairs at all an error. The rest are cool though. The Penny is a P. Dime and Quarter are D and the Half Dollar is S.
I see on your other thread that you can’t get full coin pictures. Bummer. I checked Wexler’s Doubled Die listing on these but can’t find matches. Maybe you could borrow a friend’s cell phone for some pics.
I'd like to see a series of pictures for the Cent and the Quarter. Full pictures of the coins and individual pictures of the device areas (e.g., full LIBERTY for the cent, IGWT in 3 or 4 shots, the date (w/any mintmark).
OK - work on those pictures. You'll need crisper shots for us to do a diagnostic for you. Tips for taking pic's - Find a heavy object of an optimal hieght to give your camera a proper focal length. I use an old can filled with quarters. The weight helps you steady the camera to avoid blurry pictures Use suitable backing when taking pictures especially when isolating shots along the rim. Use lighter colors for Cents (red/brown) and darker colors for the rest (silver/nickel); contrast helps draw the eye back to the object Lighting - use 3 directions if possible of equal strength to avoid shadows. Filter/Diffuse lighting - avoid glare and create an even appearance. Many DDO/DDR requests are made because of glare looking like doubling...especially as eyes grow old or tired (like mine). Have fun with the process. It can be aggrivating at the start, but as others will tell you, once you achieve a level of mastery you will enjoy the nice feedback along with some nice pictures of your collection. Good luck!!
