Did you use a 3D scan to produce your pics... Those are awesome!!!

Not 3D scan, just taken with my Canon T2i and microscope objective.

Let me take that last post back...thinking more about the technique for producing these images, I actually think "3D Scan" is an appropriate description. They are a series of 2D images at different focal planes, so indeed could be called a 3D scan...

Here's another example of 38S RPM#2. For some reason I have found a disproportionate number of these in BU rolls searched over the years. In fact 1938-S seems to be high yielding on several really neat RPMs. Does anyone have a theory as to why? Is it that the roll has always been expensive, so was ignored by variety searchers in favor of less expensive years? Or perhaps because there were proportionally more variety dies versus non-variety, or the variety dies lasted proportionally longer? Maybe all the above?

Here's another 38-S RPM#3. I really like the 38-S RPMs I've found. Their surfaces are generally very satiny.

Fairly certain this is the correct variety -- The die chip on the crack above VDB is not shown on VV.

Does yours have the cracked forehead that show on VVs DDO 001???

Indeed it does. Though cannot get a clean pic of it.
