I made a rudimentary light box with an LED lamp that I had unoccupied, it is yellow. I took photographs with inexpensive cell phone equipment. at approximately 45 degrees Take additional photographs by placing the coin face up on the flat area. I would like to know if I am on the right track? Thank you. Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34397 Posts	Posted 10/06/2024 12:14 pm Pretty good ingenuity on display @gam and I think that you are def on the right track. One recommendation that I have is to try to even out those overly bright areas by diffusing the LEDs, e.g. through a piece of tissue paper.

Gamezcal New Member United States 33 Posts	Posted 10/06/2024 7:52 pm Thanks Spence. Following your advice, I placed white plastic on it, I think it is for party decoration, I couldn't find tissue paper, to diffuse the bright areas. attached photographs. And I'm going to try to place my phone on a tripod that I have to make the photographic shots more stable. Greetings. I am attaching several photographs to see if they can help me in telling me which one is the most correct for the grading request. thank you. Report this Post to the Staff
Spence Moderator United States 34397 Posts	Posted 10/06/2024 8:05 pm Seems like continued progress to me, but I'm hoping that some of our photography experts will weigh in soon. My personal preference is for your straight-on shots as the depth of field is narrow enough that some parts of the tilted coins are out of focus.

TinyRetreat Valued Member United States 345 Posts	Posted 12/12/2024 01:05 am A couple of the pictures were more "pleasant" to my eye (more natural silver color) and I'm not enamored with what seems to be the "gold tone" result. Report this Post to the Staff
