I agree with Kanga - this one looks like it was possibly plated.

It is a nice die state coin. With the lower light that shows the devices a lot better. I'd bet it might reach MS-65.

John 1 I have an inexpensive USB microscope. I tried investing in a more serious one from Amazon, but also had built-in light, and image was sticking. Im taking this hobby to the next level. Any suggestions on a good usb microscope? Thanks in advance. |

64/65 —- nice original coin. Not reprocessed. You can put it back in the holder now! Thanks!

I have two scopes,and had to block off all but the one light at 12k and still had to put a filter on that. There will be a learning curve no matter what scope you get. What is the make and model of the one you have now? John1 |

Give it a bit for more members to chime in on what scope to get. It needs to go as low as possible and no higher than 200x,so 0-200x. I have two scopes, and I use a point-n-shoot camera as much as I can because it is easier than the scopes to use. John1 |

3.5-35X zoom is plenty. 10X loupes are the real power for a buyers glass. Over that, variety collectors figure that it's overkill. It's not that they can't see it, it's what they want to see it at before they consider it a collectible to them.

The lowest magnification scope I can find is 500X. Where do you find the 200X Maximum scope ?
