If that's the case, then why are you trying to replicate the chocolate brown color? Sounds like the seller juiced the image to make it look a particular way. Was the description deceitful?

barryg Pillar of the Community United States 5862 Posts	Posted 09/11/2016 5:43 pm All right, I just got my 100-watt "natural light" LED bulbs and my cloth diffuser and took a few shots at different angles: Still can't get it to look like the seller's pictures (and I suspect I am using way too much light here in general), but I definitely think this will help my photos overall. The first example above is the closest to what the coin actually looks like in hand, btw.
