help with 1889 P double clash please

The 1889 P looks pretty interesting and deep and has me stumped. I think this is a normal date but I cant seem to find this clash on the wing and I dont know if that is a double clash N on neck, seems kind of high for a letter. I added some other pups, not great with this camera yet but please ask f...

Re: Denticle dots, are they from strike dbl?

There is also some ghosted letters around the edges so I'm guessing it is die fatigue. Maybe pitting gone wild?

Need help Understanding PITTING

I have an 1881 S spiked 8 (unknown vam yet) with what looks like a patch of dense contained pitting directly in front of the eye and down cheek bone a bit and at first thought it was just pitting. Maybe its common for 1881 S? Looking closer almost looks squiggly on surface. Im having a lighting issu...

1882-O VAM-36 O/O Center Dubious Listing

I recently picked this 1882 O with what looks like O/O Center but it is listed as a Dubious Listing so before I send up full coin, I could use some opinions on if you think this is machine doubling or an O/O.

1921-P D2 VAM-3 16 Berry crack help

I grabbed this pick hoping I was seeing a tail feather gouge (no good). The 1921 P D2 is quite a listing and will need some guidance with this one. I was thinking I just have a V3 but looking at the crack guide, this has very faint cracks. Can anyone with more experienced in 1921 P D2 tell me if the...

Re: 1882 O 38B WOW O/O?? HELP

No matter what conclusions come forth here about O/O or etc, This v38B needs more research work as many PUP'S are also on 1882 o/s, which is only natural. Rust is but one of 38B that is a huge PUP on O/S- Ive been calling for some in know to look at 38B further, to no avail I love 38B with all goin...
