<p>[QUOTE="desertgem, post: 3170252, member: 15199"]There is a difference between magnification and resolution. High magnification doesn't mean a photo is detailed, Higher resolution does. Electronic magnification is the baine of resolution as the software involved adds "imaginary" pixels between real ones as to not offend the user and any small variation can be portrayed as raised or split or flat when it really isn't. There are 8 classes ( ways) of true doubled dies and a 9th ( Not even God knows how) for single squeeze stuff they call a doubled die which really can't be a doubled die). If a person is going to spend a lot of time and interest on this I highly recommend:</p><p><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Authoritative-Reference-Lincoln-Cents/dp/B0032CLWQE/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.amazon.com/Authoritative-Reference-Lincoln-Cents/dp/B0032CLWQE/" rel="nofollow">https://www.amazon.com/Authoritative-Reference-Lincoln-Cents/dp/B0032CLWQE/</a></p><p>It is well worth the money.</p><p><br /></p><p>Jim[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
