Sorry for the late post. I'm relatively new to this. My images are captured by my iPad. Any suggestions or links to reasonably priced coin microscopes that work with mobile devices? My bicentennial quarter looks like the "D" is a bit funky. thoughts? Thanks in advance.

@Rollsroyce - I would suggest that you start a new topic in this forum with your pictures and question, versus posting on this topic. It will get more views that way. There are several coin microscopes on Amazon. I selected one that Bluetooth to my phone

The machine was so loose, that the devices on the date are showing the same MD on both sides of these devices. If it were a doubled die, it would show spread, not removal of the contours of the devices.

While this looks like Machine Doubling, not the devices are wider, unlike on your coins date digits.

Yes please. Best practice is to start a new thread for each new coin. In this case, I've split this out into a separate thread.

Looks like George has a toothache on his cheek? Looks like a reed issue on the ear area also. Probably took a hit from another coin.
