Re: Is there a trick to photographing overstruck coins to make the original more visible?
I was extremely interested in this technology a while back . https://www.zeiss.com/metrology/products/systems/industrial-microscopy/visioner1.html?gclid=Cj0KCQiA4OybBhCzARIsAIcfn9n0aLAZdqnlRJq8gUX8_QvCTx15GAe5bHf1V2TdfZEbg_xzq3O0f3EaAtISEALw_wcB and Roger has said a very wise thing about maybe picki...

Man I am so sorry I just complicated that . I forget that not every person on the planet may be familiar with these message boards . If you see one of those underlined lines of code that appear as a different color of text again , They are called hyperlinks .Sometimes the people more familiar with t...

O/T Further research material wanted for an article I lost
This should be easy for members that were among the VW 1 forum . Late one night I stumbled upon an article that I believe was on the WIKI pages . It very well could have been buried in one of the attribution guides . . Basically it was a picture of a coin and a story that if I remember correctly , m...

Re: Help on a 1921D with two die gouges that do not show in listings
Maybe I should not have mentioned the scribbles, about the only way I have found for looking for those that works is to split screen them so they are side by side . put your picture next to the the one from the page that DHalladay provided . they will mess with your mind going from page to page ... ...

Re: 14.3 vs 14.12 8 tailfeather question
They aren't very good pictures , I had this coin on the first post of that silly price is right game . It says 14.3 on the segs holder, and i figured I better check it ... that scratch on the nose caught my eye and I got stuck is all . so what you are saying will help now that I know what to and not...

14.3 vs 14.12 8 tailfeather question
I want to keep this simple because I am just trying to figure something out on my own and am struggling , with the first little bit . I know I need to shoot pictures of radial die cracks and any other possible PUP's still , Coin is most likely just a 14.3 . I apologize if this same question has been...

Going through the big list this morning it was the only one I saw .

Re: 1901-O, VAM 13
Nice but @MarkyB, without a picture of the date this is impossible to truly nail down. VAM-13 does not have a near date... I did not look last night, I was tired ... 3 plate photos and 1 coin LFCP on the v-13 page . A date picture would be handy and also one of the cap fold . it looks like he has t...

Re: Help on a 1921D with two die gouges that do not show in listings
@DHalladay may ask you for a picture of the scribbles , do you know what those are? down by the eagles talons , usually the viewers left / eagles right . and he might know off the top of his head too , because scribbles take some looking for and are kinda hard to capture on film so to speak ...

Re: 1901-O, VAM 13
Attributing a toned coin is a little bit harder at least for me . Personal victories on one that is harder almost makes the experience itself just a little bit sweeter . I am so out of my league on this forum , I started about 30 or 40 years behind most of the members here , maybe more . However I a...
