    Hard to say what's going on with the MM - any chance of a better pic? Nice looking circulated 29-S though!

    Unfortunately, no. Microscope is acting up and won't take a pic, so I had to take of picture of the image on my monitor.

    This is a coin that I received from my great-uncle's collection. He passed in '77 so it's been in it's cardboard 2x2 since at least then., like the 1832 half and a few other coins that I've kept in his holders. Probably end up going to the next generation in the same holders.

    That's too bad - but nice Half also!

    Do you have a 10x loupe and a camera? Put those two together with some lighting and snap a couple of shots.

    That didn't work out too good, either.

    This may have to remain an unknown, for now.

    Put some kind of spacer under the loupe to prop it up to make it in focus over the coin and then take your pic through it - I used to do that before I got my scope!

    This is the best I could get.

    From your first photo, it looks like die deterioration to me.
