I have noticed that from time to time pictures of overlaid coin comparisons have been displayed on this forum.

I have some pictures of halfpennies, all pic's of exactly the same size. If any forum reader would be willing to accept a few pictures from me and would be willing to overlay them, I would be most appreciate it. I am trying to establish if there is any differences between halfpennies catalogued as Freeman obverse 11 and 12. The catalogue states differences, but I cannot find them on any of my specimens.

Bernie, it is quite easy with some free software called Gimp, it also allows you to transition the overlay so you can watch it blend in. I would be happy to do some for you if you don't want to have a go yourself

I can do it in Photoshop .. but there is a bit of a difficulty in that assuming each coin is at 50% opacity, it can be quite hard to make out the details on each, especially if they are very similar. However, it can be done, after a fashion.
