<p>[QUOTE="352sdeer, post: 3939337, member: 91351"]I think your looking at your coins with too much magnification. At anything much above 10X magnification any and all the surfaces look rough with lines, dents and die marks looking like mint errors. They are errors but very minor and are insignificant. I have an old school optical binocular microscope that is 15X by 45X magnification and very seldom use the higher power. I wish that the low end was 10X power but it came at 15X and I’m stuck with it. I’ve become use to it after 25 years so I just roll with it. So try looking at your coins at lower power and you won’t drive yourself crazy each time you look at a coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>Just my two cents worth at 15X power. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Reed[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
