Thank you Coinfrog. I have the hardest time trying
To figure out between double die and the machine
Doubling. The God almost looked 3d when I first
Looked at it. The eye also made me really wonder. Thank you
For helping me with this.

Hi John1
I use a microscope and take the pictures
Off the screen. I was diagnosed with some
Eye issues a year ago and it seems this is the only
Way I can really see a better picture of the coins. My pictures
Are not the best, I have to keep working on that.

Note the areas you are looking at is the areas where Machine Doubling and die wear is seen. (Die Wear: On the side towards the rim) The flattening of the MD of a light bounce is altering those devices. On a Doubled die, there should be a wider spread on the centers of the devices. That is the area to look at for doubled dies. Also this is a single squeeze die process (Post 1999 quarters) will have the DDO on a different area than what you are looking at. There is no listings yet for that year on the Obverse on that design on Variety Vista: http://www.varietyvista.com/07%20Ro...Listings.htm DDR: http://www.varietyvista.com/07%20Ro...Listings.htmJust realized, I thought this was a quarter. But it is a dime. I rescued it just in time.

Thank you Coop. So if it's going towards the rim it's die wear and the flattening like the D above is MD. One of these days I hope to master this. Thank you for your help Coop, I really appreciate it.
Thank you everyone

Halo, Please do not take photos of your scopes screen use a memory card in your scope. Looks like you need to put a filter over your light source to block some of the glare,you are getting a lot of light glare doubling. Here are links to help you with learning double dies and other types of doubling: https://koinpro.tripod.com/Articles...Doubling.htmhttp://goccf.com/t/51410John1 |

I agree with John1: do not take screen shots directly off your screen. You need to please a piece of while paper between your coin and the light source  . |

Thank you John1 and merclover. I did try to hook up the microscope to
The camera on my lap top but wasn't able to connect it for some reason,
But I believe I may have been able to work with the lighting, so later on I'm going to try again. I hope the pictures will come out better. Thank you everyone
