cwb Pillar of the Community United States 3463 Posts	Posted 07/20/2015 2:22 pm If a photo of a coin is taken at a slight angle, it is difficult to match it with a photo that was taken straight on. To do a proper overlay, both images need to be shot from the same angle. I think this is an issue when trying to do overlays that are very close but don't match perfectly.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/20/2015 2:57 pm Even lighting makes a difference. If you can determine which direction the lighting is, then you can copy the same light direction. Note these differences of light angles: Look at these images to see if they are from the same die?

Pete2226 Pillar of the Community United States 3330 Posts	Posted 07/23/2015 08:20 am I am a bit late with this response, but I wanted first to obtain permission to use the image in this overlay. The image can be found here: http://coppercoins.com/lincoln/dies...ie_state=mds I am still thinking that this looks like a 73 - I even think I see 2 tiny die scratches moving SE from the 9. I know my skills using an overlay are lacking, but I am wanting to understand what it is I am not seeing on this. Any help would be appreciated! Report this Post to the Staff
