Welcome to Coin Talk @Adrean B Westling. The members here at Coin Talk (CT) cover a wide spectrum of experience and knowledge, but trying to read posters minds is not one of them. What I post below is meant to help new collectors, so if you already are aware of this information, please don't be offended. For new coin collectors Being new to this site, we have no idea how knowledgeable you are in coin collecting (numismatics) so it's hard to judge how much information to give you. We at CT try to help new members as much as possible (for free), so without knowing your skill level, let me give you some info. If you just found an odd looking coin and wanted to find out if it is an error, or worth more than face value, we can try to do that. There are a ton of good online sites that can answer a number of your questions, so do some reading and self-education. I've listed some at the bottom. And regarding posting photos: Photo info for new members to CT I belabor the point of photographs to most new members so will give you my standard spiel. For the best results, you should post "in focus," FULL IMAGE photos (after you upload your photo, two buttons appear: Thumbnail and Full Image, click Full Image and your photo appears full size on your post and are easily enlarged by clicking on it). Photograph coins on neutral backgrounds like black, grey, or white. Crop out superfluous background so just the coin shows (you can use https://www.remove.bg for free), and post photos with correct orientation so members don't have to turn their computer in some awkward fashion to view it properly. While it isn’t always necessary, it is nice to show both the obverse and reverse, even if your question is just about one side. Members can often give more valuable information having both sides to evaluate. Add close ups of areas you have questions about and make your questions as definitive as possible so we know what you are asking for. And try to have the best lighting possible to show the most favorable photo of the coin. Hope this helps in the future. Good luck.
