Spence Moderator United States 34397 Posts	Posted 05/06/2022 11:31 am I'm counting a total of three die cracks and that one on the obv should qualify this for "spike head" status. Nice find! Added: your overall pics are excellent—don't change a thing. Your close-ups seem to be slightly out of focus, but still quite usable.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 05/06/2022 6:31 pm It is the close ups that are not in focus. Are you focusing on the tops of the devices or on the fields? The fields is better, as the whole coin will be show a stronger clarity. Adjust the focus so you can see the field inside of a device. Try this and see if it helps. Full shots are clear. Do not use automatic zoom on your cameras. (because then you get what you get, not regular focus on the images) Report this Post to the Staff

mb560600 Valued Member United States 356 Posts	Posted 05/08/2022 9:53 pm Nice find! Anytime you find 3 separate die cracks on the obverse of a coin, that's interesting and collectable by some in the Community. Definitely worthy of a 2X2. Report this Post to the Staff
