Pete2226 Pillar of the Community United States 3330 Posts	Posted 01/15/2016 10:17 am I am showing comparison images from CopperCoins (with permission) found here: http://coppercoins.com/lincoln/dies...ie_state=mds I am not convinced that there is a match, but I do see thickness and SLIGHT curvature of the left side of the uprights of some of the letters in LIBERTY. There also appears to be thickness on the date numbers. At first I thought this might just be circulation wear. I think I need the benefit of some additional eyes looking at this. Any thoughts?

seal006 Pillar of the Community United States 1915 Posts	Posted 01/15/2016 12:42 pm It is so hard when dealing with older well circulated coins. Many times markers can get worn away just from circulation. I too am jealous of you photos. Report this Post to the Staff
Pete2226 Pillar of the Community United States 3330 Posts	Posted 01/15/2016 2:07 pm Thank you! I replaced my old cheap USB microscope with a new cheap USB Microscope and it does a lot better and is easier to use. I am not convinced this is a doubled die, but there are enough similarities to ask the question! Edited by Pete2226 01/15/2016 2:07 pm Report this Post to the Staff
