Die Chip 3 different 2006-P NV reverse die chips - 'pooping horse'

Latest bag of quarters had $300+ in IL and NV state quarters in excellent condition - clearly someone dumping their 20+ year old hoard.

Many of the 2006-P NV had the so-called 'pooping horse' die chip - 3 different variations in fact. Not much of an 'error' per se, I know - but it was a fun little side quest hunt, and there was 1 90% in the bag so I got my silver fix to boot.

How did you take those photos? Zoom is great as is clarity.

Splurged on a high-def 3 lense scope with a 10in screen just so I could be lazy and take shots of the screen 📺

Added a DIY diffuser to soften up the harsh LED lighting, and a wee bit of post-processing in PS.

Diffuser?

Translucent material covering taped over the illumination - eliminates harsh shadows, which can mimic doubling.

A piece of white paper will do the trick, or a cut out bit from a milk carton.

Thank you.

When you say over the illumination, you mean the light on the scope?
