Grading coins from less than perfect images isn't tough enough?

For me,..# 12 for sure and # 16 looks good for a German shot..

..but the top half are very bright and the bottom half are very dark...so it becomes a guessing game because of the dramatic lighting change ..

How can you tell that there is only 2 - 1996


I ask this because I have 50 mint 1996 and would like to know who to tell the difference.

Thinking that all of these were legit..#12 has fine striations across it...but the German striations should be from rim to inner rim and not across the whole surface as this one now looks.

If it's fake,..then I've been collecting and hoarding tons of them.. Woe is me..

Where's our tWoonie expert when we need him..?

Here's a thread that may help you see the difference between the two planchet types?
