Hi Everyone.

Is this a double die variety. I am thinking maybe because of the ear and the beard?

Too much glare for me to tell for sure. Check here and let us know what you find out. Looks like the ear took a hit to me.

Thank you so much for the links John. They were supper helpful. I checked the varieties there against what I have, the details my coin versus what is in the websites do not match. So not a DDO.

Also, the lighting on my USB microscope is very challenging. I see things that are not there. Have not figured out yet how to remedy that.

Thank you again for your help.

What I did was block off all but the one at the 12k position and then I put a filter on that one. I also turn off all the lights on the scope and use a hand held LED flashlight with a filter over the lights.

Thank you John. I will try to find a light to shine on it separate, but I have not succeeded yet at finding one that helps. I will keep trying. I appreciate your help.
