    But at least you caught the variations, which it good news for your eyes. Keep looking, crazy stuff pops up when you least expect it.

    Could be glue or solder. My laptop doesn't like photos very much.

    The doubling photos are nice though

    Guy -

    Let me try to explain. It would be a lot easier if along with the excellent close-ups you provide - you would also provide a pic of the entire coin. It makes it much easier, in fact it is sometimes even necessary to have a full pic, to be able to attribute the coin.

    Now I am not an error collector, but I do know a bit about them. If you were to ask me - this latest coin is not an error. It appears to be a coin that has endured enough wear so that the rim of the coin has worn down into the legends. It is a perfect example of why a pic of the full coin is required.

    You are not being ignored by the lack of response to your post. I think it is rather a case of folks not being being able to attribute the coins based on your pics. Therefore they say nothing rather than risk looking like a fool for making the wrong attribution.

    Hope you understand.
