PurloinedCoins, WADR,until you can take and post better photos (and not so many per post) there is no point in doing so. We can not help you with this quality of photos...sorry.The better the photos you take and post,the better we can help you. John1  |

 Queen Victoria must be getting old if she's started growing a beard like that. Not seeing any doubling based on the photos. |

 give the poor photos, I can't see any doubling, sorry. I agree too with John1, we can't help you with poor photos. Please practice before taking your photos before posting.  |

Ok so I was thinking due to thickness and shawdowing maybe some kind of Machine Doubling or whatever..obviously not DD..also JOHN1, I'm using my phones camera and they come out great until I have to resize them to fit 300kb and when cropping they zoom all crazy and end up looking wild. I actually do know how to take pictures dude and am posting the best I can get as of now. I'm pretty sure you have probably pbotographed 10s of thousands of coins..ive prob done 50. Thak you for your patience. Any tips on how to crop pics without them zooming? |

There is a whole section here on CCF devoted to coin photography. Perhaps you should check it out. They can help you there. |

Until I started paying attention to the different designs of the obverse and reverse, there were several years that messed with me, as far as thickness. This reverse (RDV-002), ran from 69 to 72 and you will notice these years will have a thicker, chunkier font than others. Here's a link to the different obverse and reverse through the Lincoln series. Obverse for all Lincolns http://www.varietyvista.com/01b%20L...arieties.htmReverse for Memorial Lincolns http://www.varietyvista.com/01b%20L...arieties.htm These also show transitional varieties to keep an eye open for. -makecents-

Purloined, we really DO want to see you succeed! Practice your coin photography before posting ( if it isn't sharp, keep trying) and keep asking questions! Realise not every coin is an error coin (error coins are rare), keep searching, and lastly, Bonne chance! |

Many replies here for this coin, and I must agree that there is no doubling to be seen on it.

If anything was going on, the devices are all smaller than normal, which indicates a polished die example. When the fields are reduced, the height of the devices are reduced, thus making them smaller on the coins struck with that die.  Note how the die reduction, makes the device smaller in size? No premium for this though. Just the knowledge of knowing what happened. |

Awesome! Thank you guys a ton for dropping jewels on me! Like I only just recently learned what device meant in relation to numismatics lol..theres this awesome coin shop in Milford Ohio near me and I started going and bringing TONS of coins like the one posted above, so sure I had a basketful of errors, only to be sent home at nil..but I keep coming back and back, each time with fewer Nd fewer possibilities as I learn more and I know the gents that run the shop probly shake their heads as I'm leaving and remember EXACTLY how they were just like me 45 years ago, hungry for knowledge and addicted to the treasure hunt...and thats what makes me keep pushing on..i refuse to quit and I WILL learn to find EVERY kind of variety there is! Yall rock, stay wavy!
