Really tough for me to see. Is the thickness of the letters the key?

numismo:
Thickness of the letters and also the elongated dots are a key pick-up point.

all I can say is ...wow. the chances of me seeing, or identifying doubling that subtle is very close to zero. you get my admiration for finding it.
i guess to that extent...i will probably have to describe what I am doing is "coin gatherer" more so than "collector".
i actually pass on trying to find those varieties that are difficult for me to see - even in enlarged photos, let alone trying to see them on the coins - even magnified.
it may well be more rewarding - to find those coins - that are so subtle...but I apparently do not have your patience - or eye for details that small.

I think they are very hard to see also with a loupe but once you get good pictures of them it becomes a little easier. I really need to get a Digital Microscope sometime.

 - this is a very tough DDR! I must have looked at this for a good half hour even after posting it on the LCR site last night to try and determine it's validity. There are DDO's/DDR's that I also scratch my head on and say "What am I missing here, I don't see anything!" Edited by chuckster 125
