Hi This might be a kinda of long post.

When I first saw the LB on the reverse it seemed Off - and I do believe it to but doubled. When I was reading over the descriptions on the Wexler site they matched on the locations of the markers and types of markers - chips/ cracks etc. to WDDR-005. Now that I am going through and matching them to some of pictures - First thing is I have more than what is written so I just figured instead of Stage A like what is listed that I might be Stage B ( I am not familiar on how the stage progression happens with chips and cracks, etc) But for example I have (I think) all the markers plus more - but they don't look the same - So I am really stuck.

First things first - Please inspect the photo's below and let me know if you believe the designers initials LB to be doubled (Seal & coop always kept telling make sure you have the variety verified first.)

I will include just a few of the comparison photo's that I have prepared with my coin to the WDDR-005 listing for you all to review.

Can you help me go from here?

Thank you for help and patience with this post. There are still other markers that I have not yet included on the Reverse and Obverse - I figured these were the most significant and enough to get started with.

Images from 3 angles along with Wexler's LB image.

For what it's worth:I don't see doubling on the LB on your coin. There is a hit on the lower part of LB though. In your last pic I don't think that is a die scratch,either a die crack or die clash?

Thank you John, I will see if I can't get a better image just to be sure - I sort and search by date - like most do so just seeing this different looking LB after already going through a couple hundred of the same date really stood out. But I can't make it was it is not.

I'll put a couple more photo's up later this morning.

I appreciate you taking the time to go through the post for me.

Okay, well these new pictures are not any better. I just can get a good clean shot.

But, I think why this LB looks so different is because of a Die crack running along he bottom of the LB and also because the right bottom of the B took a hit.

Is this a better diagnosis?

Thanks Again

Just can't help you from your photo's. You could be right, or John could be; see what I think are similar?

Thank you

The images don't help a lot. Keep trying to get improve them and add them later one when you can get them. Right now, I'm not sure what it is yet.

Something to work on with your camera.
See if you have a macro feature on your camera.
Don't use the zoom to take images.
Set your camera for the highest image size when taking images. Images can always be edited smaller with software, but enlarging images that are too small cause the pixelation affect that doesn't help. (kind of makes them look like a jigsaw puzzle)
You might try different magnifying glasses to take images to enlarge them. But keep in mind, you can have too much magnification (causing a grain of sand that looks like a house) If it is only seen at too much magnification, then it maybe too minor to consider. My camera will tell me if that is the case. I see it under my scope, but it doesn't show up in the images I take. Then I know it is too minor.
