Thank you Hondo Boguss!!

How are you doing with the microscope? I have some tips for you to use with it when you take photos for the whole coin with the microscope. It doesn't matter what I do It seems that the microscope we have take the photos a little blurry (for the entire coin), at least for me, so what I am doing now is using the photo editor that come for default on my Samsung phone and use the sharpness option till the blurry go away a little bit. You can also set up the sharpness on the microscope to half or a little high and see what is the best way for you, for me work better than before. Now I take all my photos just using the microscope.

Interesting tips on making images clearer. Thank you.

Interesting chips on that one. 1960D had many dies with multiple chips in the letters on the obverse and/or reverse. I think the most I found on one coin was 4.
