I GIVE IT A TEN. For rarity. The most unlikely possibility for modified doubling.

    CN...Fred...THANK YOU! Personally, I was driving myself nuts by looking at every coin (circulated, nonetheless) with magnification, trying to find any and all varieties & errors. Your responses have flipped that light switch for me!

    Hopefully the OP will get it too!

    Fred: the grading services use 5x magnification. Correct?

  5. Whether it’s worth whatever does not make a coins reason.
     
  6. If attributing was not built on a coins reason.....

    I don't know what power the Grading Services use to
    GRADE coins - but you don't need anything over 10x
    or 15x 98.5% of the time, looking for varieties and errors.

    With a microscope, or a 50 power glass, I can find all
    shorts of anomalies on just about every single coin in
    circulation. That's not what should be used by collectors
    to find die varieties in circulation, imo.
