Would this be considered a minor listing. It appear's that Lincoln has a double right knee and leg. Thanks

Rhubarb, they are both doubled, and you can see the doubling on the right foot, as well. BTW, nice photos, too.

David: Great images as usual now that you have it down. Now just back away from the coin a little. When you get too close anything looks like something. But keeping a ways back helps to put it in perspective better that way. Most consider doubling as seen with 10X lens as major enough to keep. So when we go way above it an ant looks as big as a locomotive. Great color on your images. Only change would be to back off a little or make your images smaller showing more of the columns. That might help.

David, it looks good this way, altho I was able to see a bit better with the first picture. The knees both show the doubling, but the right one has an odd look to it.

The tip of the foot on the right (our right) looks like a bag mark on that area. It looks incuse from the image?

Yes you are right coop. Either a bag mark or a nick from another coin.
