Congrats!

I'd love to shoot this one in HiRes if you'd trust me with it. I have a new technique that results in 12500x12500 pixel (156MB) final images. I'd be able to capture all the details across both obverse and reverse. Depending on what I see in the areas that are beginning to chip-out I may also take some HiMag shots and some 3D renderings so we can all see what's going on in those areas topographically. PM me if you are interested.

You can see an example 12500x12500 image here:

I describe the technique in this thread:

Congrats on the listing!

It would be great to see some rmps photos on this one.

I got the coin and am processing the high-resolution images now, but I also shot the IBIE at high magnification and did some 3D rendering. See below...

Neato Ray! I like that 3rd 3D photo where the cracks look like mountain ranges extending off from the tops of B and E.

It also gives a nice look of the cracks running along side the back of E and the start of one along B.

Pretty cool 3D view! It shows the heavy die flow lines and the Die Cracks and Chips pretty well.

Here are links to the HiRes images. I ended up shooting them with my "new" method, but I was not happy with the process or the results, so I went back to my earlier method which results in 9000x9000 pixel images.
