CoinHunter27 Pillar of the Community United States 5887 Posts	Posted 12/22/2021 10:26 pm Pulled this one out of a bag tonight. This isn't a crazy rare variety but a strong one for sure and seldom found in a nice die state or high grade. This one seems to be in an early die state where a lot of the separation lines and notching are still clearly visible. Not too shabby! Still need the other two big ones for this date but I'll find them sooner or later. Edit: forgot to mention one of the neat things about this die was that the first hubbing had a broken R on LIBERTY and the second hubbing had a complete R, so there are two different "styles" of LIBERTY that come with this variety, one on top of the other! -CH27 Collector of U.S. Coins, Varieties, and Colonial Coinage Edited by CoinHunter27 12/23/2021 12:04 am Report this Post to the Staff

CoinHunter27 Pillar of the Community United States 5887 Posts	Posted 12/22/2021 10:58 pm Much appreciated! Working with different backgrounds and trying to find the best colors to compliment different coins. Seems to be working alright so far. -CH27 Collector of U.S. Coins, Varieties, and Colonial Coinage Report this Post to the Staff

CoinHunter27 Pillar of the Community United States 5887 Posts	Posted 12/23/2021 11:18 am Thanks everyone! My setup is my phone, a clip on macro lens from Amazon, and an ottlite. If you want to know the model I can go dig out the box. -CH27 Collector of U.S. Coins, Varieties, and Colonial Coinage Report this Post to the Staff
John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 12/23/2021 11:23 am How about the make model of your phone,clip-on and ott light? Also setting you have on your phone. John1 Report this Post to the Staff
CoinHunter27 Pillar of the Community United States 5887 Posts	Posted 12/23/2021 11:32 am I'm using an IPhone 11, an Apexel 12X macro lens, and a "Flexible Soft Touch LED Desk Lamp" Ottlite. This light works really nicely. No settings on my phone actually, just using the IPhone camera and a macro. The 12x lens is actually detached from another 12x lens which can screw together to make a 24x lens. I always prefer to use the 12x and so I don't ever attach the two. -CH27 Collector of U.S. Coins, Varieties, and Colonial Coinage Edited by CoinHunter27 12/23/2021 11:34 am Report this Post to the Staff

sheldius Pillar of the Community United States 1204 Posts	Posted 12/23/2021 3:16 pm Nice find. Very good photos. That one is pretty clear. I'm sure you will find the others. I still need to find this one someday. Report this Post to the Staff
CoinHunter27 Pillar of the Community United States 5887 Posts	Posted 12/23/2021 7:09 pm Thank you! It's a strong variety no doubt. You'll find one eventually, just keep through those rolls and bags of wheats. It's about patience and persistence! I look forward to seeing your future finds. -CH27 Collector of U.S. Coins, Varieties, and Colonial Coinage Report this Post to the Staff
