Your last picture seems the same size as your first picture but cropped. Can you zoom in a little more? Thanks. For an example, some of my posts show a zoom in picture of a doubling area. EDIT: Here is a close up of one of my 1971 D half dollars.  Edited by levelsofmadnes

See if this is better. I went back to the cell phone and tried to control the lighting better. Chris  |

Very nice picture get rid of that glare and it would be a Picasso.  Hmmmm but I don't see any doubling in "WE TRUST". |

I can see that the Samsung Note 8 takes better pictures than the Nikon DSLR. Here is the reverse.  |

 During the final phases of creating these images, I noticed slight notching visible. But the crazy MD probably didn't create this. So it may be a minor DDO, but the Machine Doubling is probably the strongest on this coin that I can remember. But the devices are not enlarged, unless the random MD removed it. Most often Machine Doubling is in one direction. This one shows that Machine Doubling does not follow any rules, other than to reduced the size of the devices with a flat shelf like appearance.Edited by coop

Another lesson learned. Never thought about using an inverted image. Sort of like thermal white hot or black hot.
But the coin picture may have been of my coin and not ccrider.

I see I may have used the wrong image, but the point is true with your coins image. I assumed that it was an enlargement of his coin. But the point if inverted images are what I was covering. Here is another example:  Note on this image, the glare was hiding the Machine Doubling, by inverting the image, the MD becomes easier to see. Edited by coop

Here is Mr. Coop's post for "Lighting and Taking Images (Showing My Hand On This One)" http://goccf.com/t/335702After reading this post, I have picked up a couple of tricks. I probably need to go back for more tips. The stem looks interesting but the "DOLLAR" looks MD to me. I am sure some of the more seasoned folks will chime in. I would like to see what they have to say. |

Thanks, folks. The only reason I thought I had a DDO was due to the notching the on the second "1" in the datye and the notching at the top of the left leg of the "U". The under image of the "1" does not look like a shelf. It has shape in the form of a curved edge. The reverse is MD. I can see that clearly in the "O" of DOLLAR. When I am looking at coins I use a 10x magnifier (like I use on stamps but without the base measurement guide). I use an LED flash light and change the illumination direction from K-1 through K-12 to be sure I am not looking at shadow. I am curious as to how to create the negative. There does not seem to be an option on my phone or my camera. I will have to look into some software to do that. As always, many thanks, Chris |

Ok.... going to have to twist your arm...
Coop is there a special program you use to invert images?/

Just on my Photoshop program. Control +I inverts the images.

And if someone has an inverted image, it can be changed back to a normal image with the same formula I mentioned earlier. I
