Wellkellsbells New Member United States 12 Posts	Posted 12/04/2017 03:44 am I noticed this 1983 quarter had an odd mint mark. Any of you experts think this is an OMM? Unfortunately the coin has been heavily circulated, but I still think it's very cool. Let me down easy if you don't see what I do, I'm new at this. Report this Post to the Staff

Wellkellsbells New Member United States 12 Posts	Posted 12/04/2017 03:52 am Thanks for the reply and welcome! I will try to get better photos. I'll see if I already have a clearer one. Report this Post to the Staff
Wellkellsbells New Member United States 12 Posts	Posted 12/04/2017 04:09 am These aren't much clearer but maybe will be helpful. I need to get a better way to take photos. I took these with my phone and a magnifying glass from an eyeglass repair kit. Report this Post to the Staff

Wellkellsbells New Member United States 12 Posts	Posted 12/04/2017 10:25 pm Well, I've learned my lesson about getting excited before asking the experts. My interest in coins started a few months ago after finding a 1909 V nickel and a 1945 War Nickel in the cash register. After that the hunt was on, and I can't stop searching for the next treasure. My husband thinks I look like Scrooge obsessing over my piles of coins. Thanks again for all the replies and welcomes. I've been using this site for info and am glad people are nice enough to respond to my question. I have a lot to learn. I need a better way to examine and photograph coins. Any recommendations for a good, comfortable to use magnifying glass that isn't very small and good for photography? Report this Post to the Staff
