Thanks wert. I disagree with John1. There seems to be alot of double mint on this coin to not have any value to it.

"Camera's just cant get you pics like this". I beg to differ. Usb microscopes don't have the same image quality. I have one but will always use a DSLR for photos.here is a sample of a 1958 double hung 8 taken with a 18-55 mm lens no flash, using daylight

What kind of USB microscope - I have been thinking about getting one. BTW - I don't really care if MD gives more value or not - I like the looks of it. I also have to wonder why people would not pay a small premium over face value - especially if it is a nickel like wert posted (I love Canadian nickels).

Very cool folcan99, which of the four different 2006 cents does that occur on? 2006? 2006P? 2006 Logo (magnetic) or 2006 Logo (non-magnetic)? I would definitely pay a premium for that coin, if I could find one in choice mint state condition.

I wish it where a non logo magnetic but its on an Non logo non magnetic. Condition is not exactly the best. Its just a cool coin with so much doubling on it.

Very cool microscope, wert! How much did that cost (if you don't mind me asking)? And where did you get it? Does it come complete with everything you need to take those great pictures that you always seem to have? It looks simple enough that even I should be able to use it...lol.
