There is also a lot of wear on the LIBERTY area. The devices are normal sized. (even the reversed ones) But on the 1982P-1DO-002 the devices are even larger. That is why I made a side by side of a normal Large date copper coin for this year and the DDO: On hub doubling it enlarges the size of the devices. This year has a lot of collectors not realizing that the devices are larger than other years to begin with. Then add hub doubling into the factor, then you can see them better side by side. Hope this helps. Report this Post to the Staff

Aaron1978 Valued Member United States 148 Posts	Posted 08/18/2016 8:46 pm Thanks COOP! The images are mirrored because my microscope that I use on my mac, mirrors the image, it's a bummer. Report this Post to the Staff

cwb Pillar of the Community United States 3463 Posts	Posted 08/18/2016 10:03 pm If you do an internet search for software for your microscope, I would think there would be a program that allows you to change the settings. It may already be in the software you have installed, you just need to find the settings page and change it. Report this Post to the Staff
