Here is a side by side. The locations are so close, but the mint marks appear to be at different angles. More images might help on this one. to me the jury is still out at this time.  |

The location was so close, that I had to do a side by side to see the differences. But still waiting for larger images to see if it is an image issue or not?

Wow and love it when you do the grid too. Does the 0 and 2nd 9 seem to be different distances apart from each other also?

I'm having a hard time getting better pictures. Does anyone have a suggestion to get a good image?

Check for a macro setting on your camera, it's usually a little flower symbol, that works best for ultra close ups. Or use a scanner if you have access to one, they usually have excellent zoom and enlargement resolution. Sometimes different light can help the camera focus better. A stand or such to hold the camera steady helps too.

No rush. Get the best image and I can go from there. The larger the better. I crop off what the second picture is missing, so not what the coppercoins is showing. That would be a great help.

I've even used 16x with my iphone for super close ups along with 'olloclip' app (free version) on the macro setting then some light play and usually get awesome pics

Best one I could get so far. I'm going to have to pick up some extra equipment to get better shots, but it should be worth it I expect to take many more pictures like this one.  Edited by wbarkley

With this image it is starting to look like a very worn out RPM #2 to me.

That is image is a lot better. The location looks like a match. The die state looks different than the coppercoins example:  |

Sure looks like it to me! coop your grid photos have been invaluable. Thanks everyone, especially coop and seal006 for the help! I'm thrilled to have found this coin.
