 I would need to see the images with the 3-5 devices per image. That puts things into a size we can use. very close shots take away the spreads overall look. It makes it hard to match up with other coins. Even the master die doubling has some affect on the tail of the '2' on the date.  Edited by coop

Looks like a 72S proof lettering to me. you said through packing, mint wrap you mean? Or 2x2?
Need wider view at lest 1\2 coin per pix if not larger please!

Mint wrap. It is definitely not a proof.

Oh yea, flyboy! Semper fi, or should it be Semper fly! I tell you what's weird, your coin has upmarks that seem to COMBINE 1972P-1MM-011 & 1972P-1MM-012. Each of these has one mark in what appears to be the identical location on yours, like a combined 2x...huh? Definitely something there, not sure if not just MD or master die doubling? \Check those out.  Edited by Crazyb0

John1,
I can't get a wider or larger pic. The pictures I have through microscope are as far back as I can get. I can get much closer (x40) but that won't help much for this particular coin. My phone can't get a clear pic that close, my good cameras battery is dead and microscope is too close.
Crazyb0, not a fly boy, I fixed what those fly boys broke. (College education to break it, high school education to fix it!!)

Well, maybe I need to get a loupe because the pictures that I am taking with my phone are through a science microscope eye piece (the one your kids use in school). My battery for my good camera is charged now, so maybe I can get some better pictures.

Here is a full picture without microscope. Not sure if it is going to help with anything. I do have it on the gray background, but still don't think that helped much.   |

Is this worth sending in to be graded?

Not worth sending to a TPG until we figure out IF it is a DDO. John1 |

What more information or what kind of pictures do you need to verify? My wife is about to do March/April budget and would like to set aside money to get it graded if it is worth it.

I would not invest the money to have it graded and encapsulated. Many of the minor doubled dies from 1972 sell for $5.00 to $30.00 which would be less than the cost of a third party grading company's fees.
