John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 05/17/2020 04:19 am Did you find a match on any of the three reference sites? Does not look like a DDO to me. MD or DDD. John1 Report this Post to the Staff

Blind Squirrel Valued Member United States 220 Posts	Posted 05/17/2020 10:45 am I am not a coin expert be any stretch of the imagination, so take my suggestion with a grain of salt. I would rotate the coin 90 degrees and take the pictures again. Report this Post to the Staff
SamCoin Pillar of the Community United States 3237 Posts	Posted 05/17/2020 11:55 am Looks like maybe a tiny bit of Die Deterioration Doubling. Are you using a reference site like variety vista or wexler's die varieties while you search? Edited by SamCoin 05/17/2020 11:56 am Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 05/17/2020 4:12 pm Also very slight Machine Doubling on TRUST. It looks like the devices are pretty fresh on your coin. So you are seeing the normal un-polished die examples that we often see. Report this Post to the Staff
Lincoln8989 Valued Member United States 183 Posts	Posted 05/17/2020 7:45 pm thanks for all the info, I think its the lighting that is making the image inaccurate, I will start comparing references with wexler and variety vista from now on thanks for all the time and knowledge you guys have given me Report this Post to the Staff
John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 05/18/2020 04:31 am As to lighting,you should be using only one light source. By that I mean, if you are using a usb scope there are on board lights,6 or 8 of them. You need to block off all but one. Sometimes you will need to put a filter on the one bulb also.
