This one has obverse and reverse issues around the same area.
The rim between the E R T in Liberty looks thinner and flatter.
It also appears to have a small lamination issue at We Trust.
On the reverse, Half Dollar looks like a Greaser and the rim appears thinner also. Any thoughts gang?

Well to start - we will need better (larger) image of the reverse, and the obverse image is a bit out of focus.

Hi Coinfrog and Dearborn. I guess I am having a problem with my phone camera. I've gotten several responses asking for cleare, larger photos. I don't have a computer or regular camera. I can't send photos from my phone without compressing them to fit the format. What appears to be a clear photo to me seems blurry or too small for the group to comment on for some reason. I appreciate your feedback and thoughts. Would you have any clues how I might be able to remedy this photo issue? Thanks for any help. I'll try something else in the meantime and see if it works. ErrorsRCool.

The obverse looks like it has a stain on WE TRUST. The reverse could be slightly Struck Through Grease. What's the weight of your coin?

It doesn't look damaged on the edge.

@ErrorsRcool: use a photo editor for cropping and resizing your photos. Resizing by pixels will allow you to maintain a larger image while reducing the file size. Also important is filling as much of the photo with the area you want to image.

My full coin images start out at 15 MB. After cropping, they are about 3.5 MB (5400 x 5400 pixels). Then I resize to 1200-1500 pixels at 70-80 image quality and save which gives me about 200 KB file size.

Stain on the obverse, other than that just a normal coin.
