I found this in a circulated bankroll, from a bank box of U.S. Pennies (from my previous bank box, not from my current one).

David, I'm wondering why your pictures are like that with being too bright. Are you just using the 4 LED's from your scope or are you adding an extra light source? Which you don't really need. And if you can send your pics through an edit program it will be easier to tune in the picture:

It's from the LED lights from my USB microscope. I'm not using any other lighting source besides that. It's also getting a little dark where I am (Cloudy). They usually come out better, when there's more sunlight available.

No problem Naaslee1. Yes, you should start your own thread. The MODS will probably move it for you. Good picture for a newbee! !

BTW: Your coin looks like it has normal circulation damage.

Naaslee1, the 1967 cent has PMD - Post minting damage - not an error.

In the future, start your own topic if you have a question. Helps keep the forum tidy.

to the CCF!
