I just got a new handheld microscope to examine and photograph my coins, along with a used Cannon D60 from eBay to do macro photography. Wow - what an obsessive learning curve. I ran across this coin during a photo shoot. At first, the condition caught my eye - a possible DPML. While photographing it, I took notice of the date. Then I began to go down a rabbit hole of endless photos.
I am starting with the Date Numeral, and what I saw. I will continue to update posts. There are many unusual anomalies that I am unfamiliar with.
This has been a most enjoyable Easter egg hunt, and I am hoping to learn a lot from this.
