Here's another one y'all. Check his nose. What kind of an error is this? Looks too clean and neat for a PMD. It looks like his nose is in the right size and shape but I'm a rookie on this hobby so I may be completely wrong. Any ideas?

Well looks like one of two choices: Machine Doubling or one heck of a well placed circulation hit causing the flat area.

Marve and E&V you guys are quick with it! lol I was gonna chime in and say MD from all if the pictures and knowledge in COOPs 199 picture Machine Doubling post! Looks to me like the part of the device that is Lincoln's Nose is "retreating" if I got that term correct.. I'll have to double check that but Marve what is this circulation hit you speak of?

Well, it's almost self explanatory - a hit from something (ie. another coin) while the coin is in circulation - dropped, being in a register drawer, dumped in a coin counter, added to bags of coins, etc.

Hey glim!

Are you sure that '99 Obverse and the two close up's of the nose are the same coin? Cause when I look at the third picture, first closeup, I mean talk about the definition of ball-chinny-in and I do not see that on the '99 Obverse. Also can you post a closeup of the date? I am not disagreeing with any of the CCFs opinions at all but in the first picture, as low quality as it is cause 300kb MAX, all I see is a really good doubling of all the date devices. I just am working on my own diagnostics and can only look at so many of the head honchos old Topics and pictures for so long before I start needing input and discussion. I apologize to anyone if I'm a bit you know

Side note: Has anyone ever discussed what the right Emoji is saying to the left Emojy before he gets slapped? I think it's "shut up.,.,just shut up" then WHACK I could also go with"bad boy, very bad boy" WHACK

I think it is the same coin in all images.
But the first 2 images (full coin ones) looks to be out of focus and VERY pixelated - leading me to think that the OP digitally enlarged the image, instead of simply using the cameras zoom function to get a nice large image that would STILL be under the 300K limitation.

And 300K is MORE than enough to post up nice looking images. I have been doing it for years now.

Correct. I am coming this close to dropping the ban hammer on the next person who complains about the upload size.

Well, I can take a hint jbuck, lol. I'm sorry for complaining about the 300kb max upload for photos guys but maybe that is because I don't understand WHY that exists. I imagine it's due to a number of things like what the forum can handle and also back in the day when we all didn't have lightning fast internet, I really don't know. What I do know is how big of a pain it is for me to add pictures to my Topics. First, I use my phone and yes I have read the tutorials but they all are . a lot . I mean it would be really nice if I could snap a picture and upload but that's not the case. I have to take a picture and hope it's good enough to show what I want everyone here to judge. Then I have to crop. Then save image to my phones files so I can convert to jpeg while making sure I don't choose to large a setting and go over 300kb. Hey I'm ok doing this because I am making an attempt to become a part of this community as this whole penny collecting thing I'm doing is important to me but maybe I should rethink myself being part of this community if I'm going to be threatened to be banned over not understanding something and complaining about an upload rule, would have been just as easy to tell me WHY. That said it's still not the easiest thing nor most time saving thing in the world and honestly I imagine there are probably a lot of potential members and new collectors who are turned off to being a part of the CCF due to this, I mean most cell phones take such high quality photos now and also I have the slowest internet speed of everyone I know cause I live in the sticks but my internet and even phone service has no problem browsing the high quality across the web. Maybe adding a reason to all the instructions why the 300kb upload rule is in place would kill anyone feeling like I do? So that's why I complained about the upload size. I apologize for hijacking the thread so feel free to delete this if you need to MODS. Also I would still like to see the date close up if OP does get around to reading this, just to see what it looks like close up even though it sure does look like MD.

-makecents- thanks for the advice but I have to admit "easing in" has never been my strong suit, It's all or nothing. I'm not gloating either it's a gift and a curse.
