Above the MM is two ufo's the lower one is a push I think but the higher one has me stumped any comments are most welcome. And if the N in IN GOD strikes you as off please comment. I see the middle of the n as to fat and the right leg way to skinny. Am I just trying to make a normal coin into something ?

Sorry, but I'd need to see a bigger picture. What you can do to keep it under 100 KB and still have a big picture is to reduce the quality.

Yea I am having a moment with the picture size... My first post had the white balance to high so Coop and others couldn't say if the 1969 s may of been one of the lesser variety coins in the series. Then today I hit this size wall. The photos I take with my Zorb are to bright and the ones with my lil digital to many pixels. The are perfect for viewing on my p/c but I can't send them any where. I will figure this out and hey thanks for the heads up. Ron

Okay, I am lost. What is a UFO? Unsightly Foreign Object? I do not see anything unsightly but I have been told I am blind.

I'm actually seeing a date above the date, it looks like 1909, Make a imaginary line going from Lincolns neck and line that up to above the date, there is something there

Sorry but I don't see anything out of the ordinary. Just a circulated coin with some dings and scratches.

I love that one. Actually does look like a 1909. Sort of the same thing when people see ghosts. Or maybe just a enough wishful thinking makes things look like something that really isn't. Although it does look like a 1909, I just don't see how that is even remotely possible.
Could just as well be a BD09. And if you turn it upside down, could be a B 0 C 8.
