Greasy Fingers Pillar of the Community United States 7036 Posts	Posted 06/24/2019 1:10 pm I wish there would have been one photo which included the complete date w/mintmark and level to/on screen..easier to match up location of mint mark to date..that being said..RPM-005? I think the MM is a bit high...leaning towards 004...But your cent looks like a proof......Sorry..I'll have to wait to see what others think... Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 06/24/2019 1:41 pm The image is enough to tell me it is not 005. Why? Because you can see mint mark punch damage on this coin. The 005 On Variety vista doesn't show any mint mark punch damage. Report this Post to the Staff
jungliston1 Valued Member United States 305 Posts	Posted 06/24/2019 3:19 pm Hello all, here is a straight shot. Coop, you said, its not 005. Is this a possible a new one? Or, do you mean since its not 005, it not a RPM? Thank you for the help, Edward M. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 06/24/2019 3:21 pm Well your images are getting a bit better. Let me see what I can do with that last image? It seems the wattage of the bulb your using is too strong. Are you using a diffuser? If so, what are you using? It needs to be either a small light supply or a stronger diffuser. Also the light source is too low. It shines like a spot light on some devices and others are too much in the shadows. I use a 12volt 14 watt bulb (DC not AC setup) Location also make a difference: The light source looks like this: Under the light you see what I call a ramp. It is made from a 2X2 Covered in a dark fabric. Also on the open end of the 2X2 I put one or two thicknesses of card board to create an angle that comes from the light source and angles it into the scope.
