My Possible Mint State 1943 S Lincoln Steel Cent With Significant Error On The Reverse

to the CCF!

Here's a split image of a re-processed steel cent and an uncirculated steel cent obverse. It gives an idea of what to look for on these as to loss of detail, color difference and field changes.

That split image picture just looks like a picture in focus vs. One that is out of focus. Of course there is a loss of detail when a picture is badly out of focus. Getting the lighting right when taking photos of coins is what I have problems with, even with a modern coin microscope that takes pictures. I find it almost impossible to the picture to look like the coin when it comes to color/shine and I've tried just about everything. Any tips that might help solve this issue would be greatly appreciated!

I manage to do that anytime I try to take pictures of a coin!

Otta, The picture is not half out of focus. As Icutler posted, that's the best visual to show the difference. That's how both coins look.
