I don't understand, no body on here was rude to you, where do you get the feeling that we were rude?

Here are a couple of examples that will show you what to look for:

This pic shows the sheared secondary devices that is common with Machine Doubling. This is the same as on the coin that you posted. Flat and shelf-like. This doubling is the result of chatter from a loose die:

This pic shows a doubled die. Notice that the secondary devices are the same height as the primary devices:

no its just that I see all kinds of pictures and to be honest some look like what I'm seeing, so I like to ask about all and everything I'm seeing mainly because I use a printer to see the coins and the same coin looks different in every angle so I really want to make sure I'm not buying a bad coin or missing out on a good one
