Looks to me like a 2 feather, I couldn't find much info on it, should I just keep it to the side as something neat or is it a common occurrence? Is it even a 2 feather? I'm not that good at identifying them.
Is the area where my arrows point to doubling in the ear or is it something else? Didnt see this listed anywhere and would prob be considered minor in comparison to those known if it is even doubled your opinions are appreciated.
What kind of doubling does liberty seem to display? There are no known ddos so I'm skeptical this is anything but figured I'd ask so I can know what it is
Pulled out a ring light and looked it over much closer I'll agree some kind of damage I just wanted to be able to see and understand what I was looking at better not just guess what happened. I'm satisfied. Thank you for your help
Which way did the metal move? I'm not seeing -scrapes -dings -pmd
The 2 forms to the field like it should in my opinion. If I'm overlooking something please feel free to point it out.
However I feel "please use common sense" to be a tad rude. I used the best of my knowledge to understand what's going on. If it's pmd that's fine however, I'm not understanding which way the metal moved or was removed that's my area of confusion. Things look correct/ untouched there to me. Is there a better way to hold my coin to see the metal displacement from the damage?
Good observation Dearborn I agree with you on the nose being a hit. Now that I have an idea this may be something I do plan to save it in a 2x2. In a couple weeks when I have my camera again I may try to get better photos and see what coneca thinks. Thank you for your input makecents, knowing my luck it probably is only work hub related dunno but thank you everyone who commented your help is appreciated.
So went through with a single light at about 45 ° the photos are rotating the coin clock wise I hand held the camera and loupe was I supposed to use a tripod and shoot from directly overhead for each shot? I marked the position of my lighting in relation to the camera and loupe. I'm seeing it regardless of rotation. Not sure what it is. If it's MD I really need to go back and reread a bunch, which I'll probably do regardless. Thoughts and comments appreciated.
If these photos werent helpful I can set up a tripod and rotate the coin keeping camera stationary from above. Not sure what would work best.
Edited to add this all.
I Set up my tripod, set up my loupe and had both stationary took photos with only the rotation of the coin changing. L marks where the light was in relation to the coin. Apologies for the low quality photos having to do this on my phone. Hopefully this helps show better whatever it is I'm seeing.
Fair enough I'll be trying a quarter turn for visibility that may be what I need to do. I'll get back to you in a bit out and about right now. I have heard of push doubling and read up on it. I may have overlooked something I'll get back with my findings shortly. At first glance it doesn't look like normal MD I'll check again
Left hand side is the first random 2023 I could find laying around. The right hand is the coin of question. if you guys say it's machine doubling I'll just be confused for a while till I wrap my head around it and that's ok. It just looks the be outside the bounds of normal design elements do me. But I could be wrong.
The nose just looks circulated in hand. I'm not seeing MD the green arrow which is where one arrow was pointed looks to be a hit from another coin to me. From my understanding the nose looks normal to me the black arrows indicate what I think are normal design elements. Those areas from what I can tell should look as they do.
The red arrows are the questionable things. They look look rounded not step like to me.they also look to be out of place for lack of better wording. Am I just overlooking the placement of the red arrow things? Are they MD and I'm just seeing it weird?
I agree with you errors and varieties, I'm just curious as to what it is. As far as I know it's the wrong area for doubling so I'm just confused honestly
Thank you for that information, I kinda figured there are some who avoid my posts and that's ok. I tend to overlook the bigger picture I've realized. I definitely am finding things on coins but sometimes forget to think about the why. But that's why I'm here. I do value the info shared by others regardless what the answer to my question may be. I think I just need to respond more so I don't come across as such a jerk. Hence why trying to do things different.
Poor phrasing on my part for the title. I do and did understand it was work hub related. I Just titled it wrong. Thanks for the extra resources a couple of them I havent seen yet.
