Nevol Formerly nancyc Australia 5385 Posts	Posted 01/18/2012 4:47 pm Getting the light right for coins in 2x2's is the bugbear for me. I have so many coins in 2x2's, mostly errors, so getting half decent piccies of them will be a task. I've got some 'special' little aids though , and although the piccies do end up a bit off colour, it works for me. It's better than removing all the coins from the 2x2's just to get images. Sheesh! What a nightmare job that would be? life is a mystery to be lived not a problem to be solved Report this Post to the Staff
Yass Pillar of the Community Australia 652 Posts	Posted 01/18/2012 5:47 pm Quote: Hold that thought... Yass's 1973 2c no sd Thank you PP. I hadn't actually copied the file and had to search for it on the ACBO. I've now got a copy for future reference. Over the past years, I have kept all my 2 cent pieces and sorted them into years. I have kilos of the darn things. I'll have to eventually dig them out and check for missing SD's on other years. I may eventually sort them by mintmark, but I wouldn't hold my breath waiting I have in my collection: 1966x2 plus another this is slightly upset, 1967x5, a very weakly struck 68, a 73, and a weakly stuck 81. The weakly struck don't count as being a 'No SD', but it may lend some support to the possibility of some 'No SD's' being die fills (greasers for our US colleagues). Report this Post to the Staff
b_j_w_79 Valued Member Australia 414 Posts	Posted 01/18/2012 6:39 pm I'm the same Yass. I have thousands of 1c (12500+) and 2c (9700+) pieces all sorted into years. It was/is exhausting and they are extremely heavy (separated into 1c and 2c boxes). Like you I doubt if I'll separate them into mintmarks etc anytime soon, although I have pulled out what I think are 1967 and 1968 no SD's. Haven't been through the 1966 and 1981 coins yet, there are just too many for me to find motivation! Edited by b_j_w_79 01/18/2012 6:39 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Jeff Pillar of the Community Australia 877 Posts	Posted 01/18/2012 9:10 pm I have found a few very weak "SD". At first glance look like no SD but, viewing closely, just very faint. Struck Through Grease or maybe one particular die; they are all 1967. Sorting by mintmark on 1¢ and 2¢ I have realised is only practical for good coins. Any wear or surface marking just makes it too hard. Jeff Edited by Jeff 01/18/2012 9:11 pm Report this Post to the Staff

jerry Valued Member Canada 109 Posts	Posted 06/18/2016 9:08 pm I almost have a complete set of "no-sd" 2 cents in mint-state (4). It's taken 25 years to acquire them. They have been properly vetted by PCGS and I'd say the toughest of the group is the 1966-no-sd in high AU to mint-state..... Report this Post to the Staff
