I'd say you've got the photography part figured out. Just lose the colored background (it's a distraction) in favor of black, white or grey and join the list of Real Shooters™.  Yesssss! Okay, I will use black as a background from here on out! I finally found an area in my house with good lighting to take my shots! |

Don't be afraid to switch between black and white; some coins are more pleasing on differing backgrounds. Satisfy your eyes.  |

I'll go 25 too. The only bad thing about these images is slight reflection on the left side of the slab, other than that, they're solid.

Coming from you that means a lot as all of your shots are amazingly crystal clear! I'll work on eliminating the reflection. I've got a Morgan that I'm gonna post up here in a minute after I take a few shots. Hopefully it'll turn out better than my last examples.  |

That is one exceptionally pleasing, honestly circulated, problem free VF-25, IMO. I do believe I hear her crying "Help Me." Sounds exactly like the original movie "The Fly." I do understand why you would continue to hold her captive though, despite the cry to release all that history to be held in hand. I love that date. I am partial to repeating numbers and especially like the font of the 4s. Die cracks and some doubling in USA, no? Very nice.

Cracking out coins, while it may be pleasing to the senses, is very unpleasing on the wallet. It's a bad investment to buy a slabbed coin and crack it. |
