Set the width and maintain ratio of all 4 photos to a standard length. Then whenever you want to verify a 1909-s VDB 1. Using a flatbed scanner - scan the cent to be verified 2. Squarely crop the date and mintmark of the scan 3. Set the cropped image to the standard width and maintain ration. 4. Overlay scanned image with the 4 from above. You can also do the same thing with the V.D.B. on the reverse.[/QUOTE]
