Still trying to get good at establishing MD and the six or seven types of DD. What do you think about this cent?

Re: type of doubling
Sorry but I can't make out any doubling, thickness, split serif's or anything. What is it you are seeing that isn't coming through on the images?

Re: type of doubling
:eureka:
one of the biggest problems i see today,........
is the use of 'scopes' within the numismatic market.
there is a "learning curve" here,.....
capturing close-up images of 'high reflect' surfaces takes a bit of practice.
every 'set-up' is different, so......figuring out exactly "how to" snap images of a coins 'actual surface', is, in reality, a "trial-n-error" time spent behind the scope.
i think i hugeeyes what you are looking at, but could this be "reflect"??? (top of the 'G' in God)

Re: type of doubling
Hi, I think what your seeing is alot of light coming back off the coins surface and hitting angles on the coins numbers and letters. It plays tricks on your eyes!
