For lovers of Wheats and woodies, here you go. Have fun with this one :) How do you call it vs. the folks at PCGS? 1909-S LWC, S over Horizontal S.

Grade will be posted later, of course.

Photographing this thing is wickedly difficult with my digital camera. I don't have sufficient control over aperture/shutter to get a good picture, regardless of light source placement and diffusion, so I'm having to cheat a bit with software exposure adjustment on the obverse pictures. The slab simply reflects too much glare to make for decent pictures. If anyone has any suggestions on how I can build some sort of system for photographing coins that doesn't require the use of a high-end DSLR and lets you stabilize the image, please let me know.

Obverse attempts 10x mag.

65BN, but since it's a woody, I bet they gave it 64BN.
