First off Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to everyone!

Was playing with my Macro lens on some cents today...

found a couple of RPMs (I think)

Penny-RPMs-1956-&-1960-And-Die-Chips-In-
Penny-RPMs-1956-&-1960-And-Die-Chips-In-

and an interesting group of die chips on B, E, & R of liberty and is this Machine Doubling on Lincoln?

Rest in Peace

60D, yes, 56d, no. Now, figure out which one it is...looks like a 60d small date maybe? That'll be easy, less than 40 to look thru

WADR,practice time with your scope. The pics look washed out and kinda dull. Hard to see the varieties,for me anyways.Please do not take this as a criticism but a suggestion to improve your skills.

As long as you keep looking you'll begin to see different varieties and errors more quickly.

The 1956-D looks like a minor RPM (split upper serif), probably never be listed. (I save then away though)

It's not actually a scope, It's my Canon with a 100mm macro lens and a magnification filter. I'm still playing with the lighting to get the best photos possible.

Here's one of the obverse on one of those cents without the mag filter:
Penny-RPMs-1956-&-1960-And-Die-Chips-In-

then here is a walker with the same light set up:
Penny-RPMs-1956-&-1960-And-Die-Chips-In-

I think I'm getting closer...
