Let's see if you can guess where the circulated proof coin is, just by the look of it. Edit - uploaded better quality down below. Edited by Grelko 08/15/2020 6:56 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Grelko Valued Member United States 232 Posts	Posted 08/15/2020 6:50 pm How's this? I zoomed in a little, but can't do much more unless I take a picture of each coin separately, or in smaller groups. I took these couple pictures out in the direct sunlight, instead of using the table lamp. When I take pictures of individual coins, it's with an Ipad or cellphone, but I place a jeweler's loupe over the camera so that it zooms farther in looks clear. The coins are in the same order as the original picture. Edited by Grelko 08/15/2020 7:01 pm Report this Post to the Staff

The coin is this 1974 S dime, that I found the other day in a coin roll. The second picture is where it was located in the group of dimes. Did you guess correctly?

Interesting that this proof also was struck by a misaligned obv die. Most proofs seem to be nicely centered on both sides. Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups. We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow. Report this Post to the Staff
