How do you tell which side of a coin has more detail? I'm talking about coins you own.

The one that makes a good impression on you?

Its always the other side.

IMO....the obverse if you are selling....the reverse if you're buying.

Experience has shown though it usually works the other way around for me!!!

With all the brains here I thought this would have been solved already.
If you want the answer PM me.

Smprfi:

I find your PM hard to believe. Putting the coin in microwave for 30 seconds ....and then the freezer for one hour....and then weighing with a kitchen scale?

Hard to believe!!!

No,no,no.I said freeze it for 30 seconds,nuke it for an hour, then scale it to the kitchen.God no one listens to me.It's like talking to a wall.

My apologies:

Now...I did it the correct way as described. Amazingly...it does work!!

No joke though....your correct instructions do make a lot of sense.

Thanks for the idea.
