thanks for the images and they are close to being pretty good but i think i speak for everyone in saying they aren't good enough so that it isn't difficult to ascertain anything from them that is useful. at least w/o some post-processing work.

try doing close-ups of certain areas. just posting a coin and asking if there is anything there really isn't how this works.

hey Me@coin$, welcome back . I am on my tablet, and I can typically zoom in close on the photos to determine what is going on. In this case, the photos are fine for full obverse and reverse shots, but honestly, I can't see much in respect to any variety, markers or pups.

1958 from Philadelphia has but one DDO on variety vista.

coppercoins has just one.

phones are nice for that but screen kinda too small for me. i may have to keep an eye out for a decent tablet or see if i got one around here collecting dust.

Good morning Gary & Occnumis2021! Hope all is well and as always, thank you for your continued support and feedback as I learn through the growing pains. No pain, no gain!

My photography “setup” is still a, painfully time consuming and frustrating, “work in progress”…. Please bare with me as I am doing the best with what I can, until I am able to upgrade my setup.

Attached are clearer (fingers crossed) and closer pictures of 1c 1958 in question.

TIA!

Best,
Meagzn

I would be one of the first to raise my hand and say.... been there done that. Lighting and photography can be a frustrating combo. I have multiple types of white cloth and even a slight flutter of the fabric can alter the lighting enough to make a big difference. It's an art. Three lights and a 16 megapixel microscope camera and sure, there are still some frustrating times. Most of the time I am photographing coins, it's a pretty relaxing hobby.

As for this coin, the photos are better. Thanks for them. 1958 did not produce many types of Doubled dies. I posted links for the websites above.

On your coin, In my opinion, I do not see enough there to call it a doubled die. Of course what you see with a naked eye or under the scope, will be totally different than what I see in the photos.

The best advice I can give right now is to offer a post I did on the 1972 doubled dies. If you look closely at IGWT in the post, you should see that classic doubled die look, cookie cutter style lines.

I hope you find some bell ringer coins soon. You deserve it.
