jdavis18 Pillar of the Community United States 559 Posts	Posted 08/24/2011 8:51 pm For now, this is the best picture I can get. I am pretty confident that I see doubling throughout the bottom of the are and I. Is this a new doubled die? Edited by jdavis18 08/24/2011 9:59 pm Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 08/25/2011 12:59 am With two light sources you get reflection off the devices that make it appear doubled, but when you remove one light source the doubling disappears. (One light source that is diffused works best) Report this Post to the Staff
jdavis18 Pillar of the Community United States 559 Posts	Posted 08/25/2011 6:32 pm So I tried to take better pictures. I think I see notching (most prevalent in the left of bottom of the A) and also in both serifs of the M. The second and third images are taken at slightly different angles (and if I am not crazy show doubling under the bottom of the serif in the R) Tell me what you think.

augbauer Pillar of the Community Philippines 606 Posts	Posted 08/25/2011 11:07 pm I can now see those notches. Haven't you check them with CC? Report this Post to the Staff
jdavis18 Pillar of the Community United States 559 Posts	Posted 08/26/2011 02:37 am I did check on CC and there is no doubled die for the reverse. I'm hoping I discovered a new die variety Report this Post to the Staff
coppercoins Pillar of the Community United States 7629 Posts	Posted 08/26/2011 12:20 pm I would like to see images of that area of the coin with only ONE direction of lighting. Shining light onto the coin from two different directions while taking a photo is always going to look like doubling - visual illusion. Report this Post to the Staff
jdavis18 Pillar of the Community United States 559 Posts	Posted 08/26/2011 1:35 pm The second time I took the pictures I thought I got rid of the second light supply. I guess I was wrong. I took the pictures again in direct sunlight without flash and I didn't see what I saw earlier. Thanks for the lesson. Soon I am sure I will get this right and stop wasting everyone's time.
