I appreciate all the help here. I have been learning so much. Reading posts and comments here. Articles on other sites. Learning to look for size and appearance change. Reading (and rereading several times 1 particular one by I think coop? I can't be certain) things on spread, notches and things I can't focus on like ccw pivot at 9 o'clock (these here I'm struggling). Looking for difference between thickness and damage. Trying to understand how some things are or how to know it is. Die crack or damage Idk. Rim error I can't find much on really, most of all though, have sometimes almost total confusion searching wexlers. Things that are damage on one coin are error on next. And sometimes it's on same coin. 1 letter mark means doubled 2 letters down same mark is a scratch.
Now I'm not actually asking for help with these. I'm saying I am(was, will explain) feeling confident about choices but I'm stuck at point where I either am or I'm not and I don't know any other way to find out. So after 1st and almost instant thing that got attention I started finding other things. Which was ok , I see coins on wexlers constantly w/multiple errors. Then I went to wexlers. And there's no listing for it. Then I went to error.ref.com and nothing. So I went to variety vista and it had listed. But not available to click on. Which means no files right?
So tbh, I'm actually still fairly sure I'm at least not horribly wrong completely. So my question is. Point blank I, respectfully, would like to know based on my "evaluation" of this quarter, would you say you feel I am or have learned. Or would you say you're terrified for future society if people like me are allowed to breed. You know a couple of you found it funny admit it

. I also think you know I'm completely joking. You've shown your sense of humor. As well as patience so I'm pretty sure you'd never say 2nd part. I think....&

And you qualify for sainthood if you're still reading.
P.s. I'll throw in vote for Nobel if you keep that patience when you see photos. There's not a thing you've advised I haven't done. It is simple. A photographer I am not.
So starting w/what 1st got almost immediate attention, on bust. Forehead and lips specifically. I think this is what when reading your advice I should be looking for for DD.



The 4 though I can't get it accurate in pic

The n in IN and e in WE. Though if all I had seen in here was e probably would have called damage.

Above AR in QUARTER between leaves along stem I want to call it a die break. I didn't think it was DD or crack either dc or damage.

Also another spot on stem above 2nd l in dollar(which also includes view of 2 leaves directly above stem spot and then next one up branch from it. These I would say DD.

Now there are other things going on cracks and and such I won't bring up them I'm not that brave yet and you've been handed enough

except to say while taking photos found spot above M. Accidentally deleted that pic and tried to refind unsuccessfully


Thank you ahead of time, even for possible criticism. I assure you, your complete honest opinion is the help I'm asking for. Also if this quarter is listed somewhere I'd appreciate that info. I really would like to think I've at least stopped being a total newbie and that's kinda how I feel thinking I've found 1st one with problem right. But I still can't take back my choices. Just try not to draw blood too soon & :) :)
