Started collecting a year ago just never had the chance to get into them until recently. Not sure if these are doubled by the machine or otherwise. But I have a few I need checked as my magnifiers aren't the best. Opinions appreciated thank you

No Doubling that I can tell. Might need better photos to see anything.

I'm curious about that 1944... what is the color of that?

Cannot see any doubling given the images posted. Suggest removing the coins from the 2x2s and examine them closely. If you do see clear doubling, post full, large and sharp pics of the obverse and reverse. Suggest having only one topic thread per coin--not multiple. Thanks.

I know I have an apple 14 and the camera is bad also having a hard time finding a good magnifier any suggestions on those. Price isn't an issue as I have a lot of coins. I

There is a technique to taking images of coin with a cell phone, and it takes time. your images so far aren't that bad but before posting them, try to crop them down to the coins edge so we see more coin and less background. You already mastered one step - Having the coin up right . I'm not that good at explaining how to get good images here but there are plenty floating around. Here is a place to start on getting good images:

Now getting back you the topic at hand.
I'm not seeing any doubling on any of the coins with the images provided, sorry.

I think that is as close as I can get with the camera it looks lumpy in the letters and numbers when I look closer

I have a good phone just apple 14 it's just not good. I didn't know how you have to adjust to see something so close. It's hard to find good magnifying glasses as well not many options in stores mostly online

Nice Wheaties! I use a Microscope/Loupe App I downloaded from app store thingy. They aren't too shabby if you find a good one. You'll probably have to try different ones to find one that you like. Some are pretty crappy but some are really good.

Way too many coins in one post for any reasonable replies - I'm not sure what feedback you are looking for.

Please post one coin per thread with good photos and a question and we will be glad to help.

james88,

The 1947 is a spender because of the major fingerprints.
Here are some links to help you with photos: http://goccf.com/t/422658
