Try photographing your coin direct with your camera. Even older phones with cameras can zoom in 5 or 6X. Please try again so we can help you. to the CCF! Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34462 Posts	Posted 06/03/2021 06:56 am @jer, yes a little better, although these pics seem to have vertical light streaks. On your coin, it looks to me like the doubling is DDD.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 06/03/2021 2:37 pm Looks like split plating on the first image. https://images.PCGS.com/CoinFacts/8...015_2200.jpg Note split plating happens on proof coins as well: Report this Post to the Staff
Jeremy77 New Member United States 6 Posts	Posted 06/04/2021 03:14 am Thank you so much. I think it is double plating, but I haven't ever heard of that. I think I have a few coins like that, so it seems like it might be pretty common, am I right? Report this Post to the Staff

merclover Bedrock of the Community United States 10635 Posts	Posted 06/04/2021 10:51 pm Jeremy, I am trying to figure out why there seem to be vertical light streaks radiating from your coin photos. I want to help you figure this out for future posts. Are you holding these coins against glass maybe? Or maybe your lighting source is exactly bouncing the lights from the surface of your coins? Let's try to solve your shininess issue first, then your coins, ok? Report this Post to the Staff
