westernsky Pillar of the Community United States 7644 Posts	Posted 04/28/2019 01:56 am I would say 63/64'ish. There is way too much light and reflection to give you a better guesstimate. Try shooting your pics with ambient room lighting near a window. Crop your pictures to show the complete coin...obverse and reverse. Not worth TPG'ing in my opinion. Report this Post to the Staff

kanga Pillar of the Community United States 5825 Posts	Posted 04/28/2019 09:12 am It's too shiny. I think it's been reprocessed. If so, that kills the value. Report this Post to the Staff

KenKat Pillar of the Community United States 4085 Posts	Posted 04/28/2019 10:09 am I agree with Kanga - this one looks like it was possibly plated. My 7070 US Type Set My 7100 Lincoln Cent Set (now with updates!) Report this Post to the Staff
Believe7 Pillar of the Community United States 701 Posts	Posted 04/28/2019 4:50 pm OK, I've removed the coin out of the 2X2 to try and take a better picture. I believe that the plastic on the 2X2 made the coin too reflective. Here are some better ones. Thanks for the input. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 04/28/2019 5:49 pm 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. Report this Post to the Staff

Believe7 Pillar of the Community United States 701 Posts	Posted 04/28/2019 7:40 pm 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. Report this Post to the Staff

westernsky Pillar of the Community United States 7644 Posts	Posted 04/28/2019 10:22 pm 64/65 —- nice original coin. Not reprocessed. You can put it back in the holder now! Thanks! Report this Post to the Staff
John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 04/29/2019 04:56 am Quote: Any suggestions on a good usb microscope? What is your price range? All scopes will be a challenge with the lights. 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 Report this Post to the Staff
