<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dayriser, post: 761529, member: 21610&quot;]Well, I think I had a pretty good handle on what the three were... More interested if any of you either bother to keep them... I do personally, but I find I am stacking up more and more coins and I think I will have to start paring back on what I keep for myself...</p><p>The blistering is what I figured that to be after I got it under my microscope... I was disappointed that it wasn&#039;t a die crack, but the blister going the full width of the coin and right through the neck seemed symbolic somehow and was a keeper for me in any case... </p><p>As for the after mint damage, I will have to get you a better picture... It is the second one I have found that way with virtually the same pattern, and in looking closely, I think you will find it was done in such a way that prevented the design from being pressed fully... I do believe it was done at the mint... I might try a closer image... Thanks for the tip on photo editing... I will try and remember to crop... Unfortunately that is the macro setting you are seeing in those pics... That is as close up as I can get and still get the focus... it is really not a good camera... <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Yeah, the nickel is sweet... The back is more impressive than the front... Looks like octopus tentacles coming over and around the building... Was too beat to do anymore pics last night... will try again later...</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Thanks for all the responses...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
