coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 06/14/2011 12:22 am I'm not convinced on this one. Try reversing the way you take images of doubled dies. Let the light fall across the doubled area and not glare where you want to show the area in question. Here is a few I've found for this year. See if they help: https://www.coincommunity.com/forum..._coop_01.jpg https://www.coincommunity.com/forum..._coop_02.jpg https://www.coincommunity.com/forum...oop-10PR.jpg Remember to turn the coin 180 degrees when taking images of doubled dies. Use on light source. Use a diffuser to remove the glare. It can be a plastic grocery bag/bond paper/or a frosted white coin tube. This helps remove the glare. Still have glare double your diffuser.

I am 99% sure it is 002. I spent a little over an hour trying to shoot this coin with my so-so usb scope and this is the best I could do. There is only one light and it is diffused. I tried with the light at 12:00 and I tried it at 6:00,i had the coin flat and on a angled ramp, I rotated it at several different positions.It was even harder to photo because it's real shiny.It matches almost all the markers and that doesn't happen very often with me and that's why I think it is 002. Thanks for your help as always, John1 Report this Post to the Staff
