Hi Coop. Good suggestion but since I am catching up from being unemployed and have medical bills to pay...not able to save much! Buying coin rolls and recycling those coins are how I finance my hobby. I was hoping to be able to sell something first before making any coin related purchases. The offer from EScott is much appreciated. Next big expense- the vet: Getting Sparky back on prozac. She went off it when we evacuated for IDA and is still nervous and chewing spots on her legs! Must be the 25% wolf in her....  |

Great colors and beautiful eyes. You might ask your vet is there are any supplements you can feed here in her diet might help. (Drugs are not always the answer) Something missing from her diet? Might check online to see if any natural solutions are available? What area are you. (not asking for an address, but just the general area. Maybe other coin family brothers and help?

I live in New Orleans. Someone suggested CBD oil but I will definitly ask about the supplements. I am in New Orleans. Her eyes are more blue than the photo shows. She is also Siberian Husky and Malamute and was feral when I found her as a puppy. She has always been a nervous dog...

I sympathize with the vet bills. And thankful of are healthcare over here in Canada. If it wasn't for it I would be about 20,000+ in debt from the birth of my son last year. I have heard amazing things about CBD oil with animals, for the price it wouldn't hurt to try. It could be lack of some specific nutrients as noted above. Causes many issues with animals and humans. All the best.

The percentage of wolf was the thing I was thinking about. You might check it see if online anyone has dealt with mix breed, wolves especially.

And thank you Wreckdd for your comments. Canadians are so sensible!

Here are my fur babies Here is what I fee my girls Every Saturday, I cook up in the oven 1 full bird large chicken in a 2" deep pan filled with water. cook it to 190-200 degrees F. when done strain the water and save it in a Tupperware container, let the chicken cool to touch then debone it and dice it up to 1/4" cubes or smaller, save in clean Tupperware container and place both in the fridge. I also cook up 2 cups of long grain rice to keep in Tupperware in fridge. That is the only real prep work to be done. Feeding: 1 cup regular dry dog food (I use Purina) 1/2 cup of the cooked/prepared chicken 1/4 cup of the saved chicken broth to moisten and flavor the dry food 1/4 cup of the rice (good for a healthy gut) and 1/4 can of Alpo canned dog food with gravy Mix it all together and serve. the above serving size is for each dog of mine. Only need to cook one bird. and it lasts for 7 days. Cooking the bird up to 200 degrees ensures that it will last for the week duration, any lower temp in cooking will result in the chicken not lasting all week (Trial and error there)  Edited by Dearborn

As for your dog biting or aggressively licking its leg,
It is a sign that she (he?) is bored. a lack of activity.
My dog did the same thing, licking her leg to a point it was raw.
To break my dogs habit (and it is a habit after time) I had to keep a close eye on here when she is just relaxing on the floor while resting and interrupt the activity as quickly as possible.
I'll usually raise my voice like she did something wrong (you can use your own type of 'punishment' to your dog. The point is that the licking is a bad activity and needs to stop and the dog needs to learn that it is bad.
Sometimes I'll lightly slap the arm where she licks saying 'NO!" then tapping her nose.
It took about 6 months but she no longer licks her arm and it is all healed up.

Returning this back to the original post, EScottCoins, your offer/help to Cons is a very generous one indeed. I am certain Cons will put it to good use!  |

Ok now really returning to the OP's FIRST original post. No, I'm afraid that RiDB's are fairly common on Lincoln Cent coins and one of the size you posted is not large enough to bring in a premium enough to allow you to purchase a Microscope |

On a side note @merclover it was the OP that had changed the subject in this thread, maybe you should let the OP (Cons) garner what ever information they want in their own topic.
