Rob, if you can post a 45 deg photo of delam will help more (hard to take I know, in general at 300x or 500x). At the first view I see a crack planchet due to the failure of purging the liquid metal. If this?!! You has a one of the fewer on the series, and due to this effect in most of the cases we has a rolling deformations.

When taking images for a side by side comparison, before taking the images, look at a web site to see what to include for a match up http://www.varietyvista.com/07%20Ro...7DRPM002.htmNote the widest shot. (first image) when taking an image of that area include a bit wider shot. Why? Because if the close cut image (like yours) might not reveal a rotated image. If the slightest angle off, could affect the location of the mintmark. So if you could try taking another wider shot image just 20% wider than that first image, it would help with the alignments. It is best to include images primary landmarks. That way I can align it so it will be even a bit better in alignment. When the images are cut to close, it can affect the alignments. So it you could do that, it might be that die, but having a bit more surroundings present, might help more. Sometimes the fingerprints of information aren't there to show a need correction. So lets try it again with a wider shot, just a bit wider than the larger view image.

Yes, we can say delam. If fact on silver is due this to the melting process. when is purge and is not clean well the impurities which come up, on the rolling process will do this effect of delam and cracking. Been very small and going with the collecting comunity we say delam, in fact is more cracking and is show better by the second and third photos.
Nice one. I have no idea of premium or the others defaults.

That looks better. I'll work on it again tomorrow.  Still not a match. Even showed better that it wasn't the same die.

Thanks so much coop. I've been working on what you said about the lines on computer. Just taking a little time. I'm sure I'll get the hang of it. I see you used the green line to size up and line up the coins  Thank you Silviosi for your knowledge of the metals.
