oih82w8 Pillar of the Community United States 7840 Posts	Posted 08/23/2012 08:41 am I'll see if I can "lighten" it up a bit. (later at the EC Robotics Room) Photobucket "autofix" only made it darker. (even later at the EC Robotics Room) I am going to leave the original image "as-is" since I obviously don't know what I am doing in comparison to the coin "in hand" characteristics. Making the image larger only makes it pixelated. Edited by oih82w8 08/23/2012 10:30 am Report this Post to the Staff

oih82w8 Pillar of the Community United States 7840 Posts	Posted 08/23/2012 1:06 pm SsuperDdave, if you want something bad enough, you will find a way of making it happen. My way turns out to be..."sell, sell, sell" some of my other "things" that my 7070 has outweighed my interest in, like a few Antique Pocket Watches, some duplicate coins and paper money that have to go. I updated my Trade list on some coins here on the CCF to try and save on those darn ebay fees. Let's haggle! https://goccf.com/t/108864 Edited by oih82w8 08/24/2012 08:09 am Report this Post to the Staff
oih82w8 Pillar of the Community United States 7840 Posts	Posted 08/24/2012 08:07 am I hope that the "light spots" are on the slab and not the coin itself; She should be out for delivery today (I hope). Thanks for the comments! Edited by oih82w8 08/24/2012 10:32 am Report this Post to the Staff
oih82w8 Pillar of the Community United States 7840 Posts	Posted 08/29/2012 09:34 am Yep the "light spots" are a couple contact marks on the slab surface. I did take a few USB Microscope images of the die break above LIBERTY; Is this an early state of the "spiked chin" since it is not very prominent?
