<p>[QUOTE="usmc60, post: 2391768, member: 76739"]Thank you a very helpful suggestion. I believe basically that's how I spotted the first one, trying to photograph it my lights came down on the coin creating a shadow, after visually examining I just want ahead and put a straight edge on it. As far as these two quarters the first one no way resembles the second one here they're very distinctly different, I know it's hard to judge by these poor quality photos but that's the best I can do for now. Basically the second one shows distinctive signs of die fatigue this may not be the proper word but they look like distinctive vertical stretch marks even on the reverse, which the first one has none. I'm sure members out there like myself who has gone through thousands of coins have seen and thrown back a lot of these coins, I know I have all I know is the first coin that I shown here does not have the signs of a fatigue die to me that's what made it interesting. One day when I get some extra money I may send both of these coins in for a professional opinion, But for right now when I go to the Miami VA and see all the homeless vets even in their hard times they still try to help others by offering free food vouchers I give the food voucher back along with a five that's a lot more important to me than get some professional opinions on a quarter. One day I may be able to accomplish both but until then I'll stick with helping the vets. Thank you for your advice <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie24" alt=":blackalien:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> \V/ usmc60 PS I show the straight edge process on either page 1 or two but instead Using a light I use the feeler gauge method this way I can get an exact measurement on the difference, this way is a lot more work but it's a lot more accurate and it answered the questions that I had.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
