chadcoins Pillar of the Community Canada 1160 Posts	Posted 02/04/2025 12:46 pm I purposely took these pictures that way to catch the light, that is how big it is outlining the devices. One of the best I ever found. Report this Post to the Staff
jbuck Moderator United States 189767 Posts	Posted 02/04/2025 1:28 pm Understood. The lighting is helpful on the full shots, at least for me since it has some context and shows just how much the die has deteriorated. Once I recognized the context, I feel better about saying it is DDD when viewing the closer shots. I hope I was not trying to discourage the close up shots. I am not. But I am very happy you included the full shot, which more times than not other people forget. So, thank you for that.

chadcoins Pillar of the Community Canada 1160 Posts	Posted 02/04/2025 2:04 pm Yes this particular coin was tricky to photograph. I do include a full coin shot in every post now regardless. The objective with the pictures is to put you the viewer in the eye piece of the microscope what I see with 100% results in feed back. Report this Post to the Staff
