I need to cover the LED's on my scope with something. The glare is killer.

I wish I knew how to put the original green spotted and re-darkened penny side by side.

Thats really incredible! Can I see the reverse? That was taken with a scope? How do you get it so focused at that distance and capture the whole coin? I have microscope catastrophes.

I didnt much concentrate on the reverse but it's not bad. I didnt think the focus was all that hot.  Oregon coin geek.....*** GO BEAVS ! ! ! ***

Thanks JBuck ! First time I've ever tried it on a Lincoln. The green 81 was nasty and was just gonna go in my coppers bucket anyways. Fun experiment. I started collecting last year and I was asking this old top on ebay about some of the coins I was receiving. He said I owed it to myself to learn what they were doing to the coins so I could learn to spot em. Oregon coin geek.....*** GO BEAVS ! ! ! ***
