Bestjet Valued Member United States 271 Posts	Posted 07/21/2022 2:09 pm Hi everyone, just picked up a bunch of 90%, Benji`s, Kennedy`s and Washington quarters. Going to go through them all, and this is my 2nd Kennedy of 5. I`m not positive but I think maybe md, but I think I see split serif`s. I`m sure ya`ll can help with my lack of knowledge. And just for general info, I picked up $9.50 in half`s, and $14 in quarters for 15.3 X face. $360 cash otd in Tucson yesterday. I hope I did`nt photo bomb ya`ll and these are good enough pics. Thanks Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/21/2022 3:11 pm On the micro images a single light source is better. Light and shadows are better with a single light source. Using two light creates a false image on the devices. (It lights both sides of the devices) Think, light and shadows. Report this Post to the Staff
Bestjet Valued Member United States 271 Posts	Posted 07/21/2022 5:00 pm Hmmm? Could it be possible? Nah I'm not that lucky or good. Thx Dearborn I see the die gouge. I will look into it more. And coop, that light is a turned down version of my pluggable. The coin is really shiny. I will try better pics shortly. Sill love more opinions though. Can't ever have enough. Thx Report this Post to the Staff

luvmyCAM Pillar of the Community United States 1479 Posts	Posted 07/21/2022 5:56 pm thats a nice specimen one for the collection, terrible glare but those closeups caught my eye haven't looked at varietyvista digging through the DDO's for yours but Fivas - Stanton popped in my head. Hip shooting here but I bet its got an FS listing. Congratulations its scarce, in a brilliant uncirculated condition and only thing to gripe about is the late mid die state but as a lover of doubled dies thats the last thing to b#@!$ about LOL. Watch out good finds come in three's then doubled die Desert for awhile, congratulations on your find. Report this Post to the Staff
Bestjet Valued Member United States 271 Posts	Posted 07/22/2022 6:27 pm Thx guys for the replies. Coop, I am trying but cannot get better pictures. I shall go to the camera forum again and read. Dearborn, I see the die gouge but it's in a different place than mine. Looking at all the DDO pictures, my doubling seems to be way more pronounced. And luvmycam I can't find fs listings. I tried but it didn't take me anywhere I could find anything relative. So any help ya'll can give me on where to go I will gladly look. And I can't move on, (4 more Kennedy's, 14 Benjis + all the quarters) cause I'm kinda ocd/anal like that Thank You. Report this Post to the Staff
atrox001 Valued Member United States 311 Posts	Posted 07/29/2022 7:20 pm I believe the only doubling that can be seen in your photos is the reflection and glare doubling, because of your lighting. Your half dollar could not be the DDO-004 because the 64PRDDO-004 is a Proof not a Business Strike. Report this Post to the Staff
Bestjet Valued Member United States 271 Posts	Posted 08/02/2022 1:15 pm Well atrox001, I see where it is a pr004. Did not put that together. Thx. I'm going to try to put up better pics on this. The bottom foot of the E in we and the west part of the first T in trust show a split in the serif and the die gouge is there also. Just a little east of the pr004. So let me try and see if I can get y'all better pics. Thank you everyone for y'all's patience. Report this Post to the Staff
Bestjet Valued Member United States 271 Posts	Posted 08/02/2022 1:52 pm How are these? Hopefully better. I added the 6 and the 9 also. I'm trying to get my pics better, but this is such a shiny coin it`s tough. Thx Report this Post to the Staff
