SaintAnthonysFire New Member United States 6 Posts	Posted 07/08/2014 6:17 pm In the picture you will see two coins I found on one of my MD'ing hunts. The question I have is regarding the 1864 indian. It seems that the E in CENT on the reverse is somewhat raised and slanted oddly compared to the other Indians into collection. I included the other coin in the photo for comparison, and because It's the only picture I took before putting them into holders. Is the slanted E an error? I've had zero response on other coin/MD'ing forums. Sorry if the quality is poor. Shrinking the sizes to fit the forum really ruins the photo quality. Are you allowed to link to imgur picture sharing site? If so and another pic is needed I can link high quality photos. Report this Post to the Staff

It looks normal to me. ...Nah it's there. My eyes are just wonky. Edited by Waxemm 07/09/2014 09:06 am Report this Post to the Staff

SaintAnthonysFire New Member United States 6 Posts	Posted 07/09/2014 1:12 pm Thanks for the tip. Yeah it's hard to do on mobile, so I just emails it to myself and shrunk the size. Luckily I can just link to imgur where I have high quality pics. Report this Post to the Staff

SaintAnthonysFire New Member United States 6 Posts	Posted 07/09/2014 2:09 pm Something seems off with the E in 1864. If I put a straight line from E at the top of the C in CENT it doesn't match up with the bottom part of the E like it's slanted from top to bottom. I don't have any other 1864s to compare it to so I dunno if that is normal. Also looking at pictures it seems like the cap between the top of the E and top of the C are closer then they should be.
