1983P-1DR-002

Ok,
So hopefully this find I'd not so controversial..
I matched a few the markers using my cell phone, if you see any issue, I have no problem providing more makers.. bc I will not post a coin with a DDR label attached without doing hours of matching up markers and homework..
Now before I post scoped pictures I really do need help..
I know yall think it's odd but I'm not kidding and th


us isn't fun for me to ask..
I seriously need help understanding the art of the scope, what scope to buy, lighting, etc..
Bc I know it makes a huge difference.. I currently own a $10 amazon scope.. so pictures are very poor quality and never display live feed images which are much better quality..
I'm not here to argue, prove anyone is wrong or disrespect anyone.. I just need to learn.. and honestly its furstrats me bc I know I'm correct about the doubling but I asko know you all are correct about your opiniona with my provided photos..
So for the love of dear baby Jesus just send me a msg pls..

    I do not see a doubled die reverse. Instead of markers, highlight what you believe are the doubled features. Also, compare with the known Doubled Die pictures for confirmation. Cheers, RickO

    I will never understand the OP's obsession with markers over the actual doubling. :/

    All the supposed markers in the world don't take the.place of missing doubling.

    Same thing different thread. This is very counterproductive, and distracting to the actual problem you are having. You would be better off starting a thread about what your main problem is and not another Lincoln Cent pointing out die markers. The problem you have stated is that you are looking for better lighting and a better scope for pics, so why don't you start a thread about that and make it the title of the thread and leave this other stuff out of it.

    At this point, I suspect the person used to be on here as someone else.

    I give up..
    Again out of all due respect..
    Do you guys not read my post??
    Do you not understand that I'm asking for help?
    Do you not understand I'm not looking for anyone to tell me what it is or isn't..
    I'm literally just asking and begging and pledging for someone and I mean anyone to stop, listen to me and please give me alittle of there time and share some knowledge with me.. someone that knows their crap.. someone that has the willingness to help and not try to create arguments..
    Idc if you think that I'm full of crap, or stupid or crazy.... what I do know is my experience and I'm fully aware of my issue.. if you give me alittle time I will listen to you and make required purchase and listen to your opinion.. I have researched this but I'm really wanting to hear is a experienced person point of view. Not some bias post that Google shows..
    I dont want to be mislead, I just want to solve my problem.. which whoever helps me will see at the end what I was talking about..

    Your photo skills are plenty good enough to show that the coins are not what you claim them to be.

    The problem is not your camera skills. :#

    But yet they are not..
    Also IF you guys can seriously tell this coin.. a 1983P-1DR-002. MDS IS not A doubled die from a far away cell phone pic then yall have some super powers that you need to share with folks.
    Lol

    As far as markers.. that's the photos I can provide well enough to prove it's the coin..
    As far as the letters.. if yall just read my request you would stop being rude and know I'm trying to get advice to better display my finds..
    Pretty much I have a dookie scope that provides dookie pictures and im unwilling to show the dookie pictures bc all that does is start arguments..
    So if you have no advice which this post is asking for nicely, then pls don't comment and pls stop attempting to start fights..
    Thank you much in advance

    You are able to get close ups of your so-called die markers, do why not provide the same type of close ups of the so-called doubling?

    That is a very common area for cents to have die cracks so throw that out the window. The O in ONE and the UN in UNITED should show mild doubling - show us those 2 areas for confirmation. You first find doubling then look for markers. Plus most markers are gone from circulated coins anyhow.

    If you believe that the coins you’ve posted are errors, instead of continuing to ask for opinions, arguing and complaining, put your money where your mouth is and submit them for attribution and grading. Then post pictures after you get them back.

    In the meantime, please stop playing games, futile exercises and wasting people’s time and effort.

    For photographing I think lighting is as important, or even more important than the camera. With inadequate lighting it is difficult to see details since they can become lost to shadows. For instance "ONE" in your photos is nearly completely in shadows, but it's one of the important features to look at. Without good lighting, it doesn't matter what your camera is, the pictures won't turn out. Some people have had luck using a loupe held up to their phone camera.

    Perhaps the best course of action is to completely ignore this guy.

    Yes, but it's like a car wreck - you just can't look away.......
