coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 12/11/2021 11:38 am Looks more like a contact mark that flattened that area of the ear. On a doubled ear, it would be raised not flattened. Open this image up to max to look at what the doubled ears look like. They are all above the fields.design on that area of the ears: When you look: note the raise of the devices. They are not incuse or flattened. Report this Post to the Staff

Bumpkin Pillar of the Community United States 509 Posts	Posted 12/11/2021 1:55 pm My humble opinion here is that I think this has potential. Your 5th picture, to me, is the most convincing and it almost looks darn near tripled. I don't believe it's a result of light reflection, I think that's a good picture. I'm not seeing this happened as a result of a contact mark simply based on what looks like raised metal as well as the curvature and definition of the extra metal. Wexler's picture of the ear is not the best, very blurry to me. By no means am I putting coop down on this one (that literally would be an act of treason ). Maybe Tannman will chime in on this one with an opinion. Edited by Bumpkin 12/11/2021 1:59 pm Report this Post to the Staff

gorham_collector Valued Member United States 426 Posts	Posted 12/13/2021 10:34 am I've found a similar one like this I sent it in and sadly to minor. This one doesn't look as dramatic as the 2018 or 2019 even those ar e small too. I'd say this to minor scar the $5 for wexler but if you'd like ofc try Report this Post to the Staff
RobO411 Pillar of the Community United States 2404 Posts	Posted 12/14/2021 1:26 pm Thank you gorham for looking and info. I just thought it looked different than what was posted. It seems most of the shield ears are minor. There's a lot of minor issues on the sites. Take the doubling of the initials on shields. I feel if it's minor and not listed and looks different it shouldn't make a difference. All errors can't be honkin huge that you wouldn't need different lighting angle and magnification to see. I know they can't picture every minor thing that would be (impossible). But that's just me. Thanks for info about not sending it in. Happy searching. Rob Report this Post to the Staff
