trout1105 Pillar of the Community Australia 7096 Posts	Posted 01/30/2017 10:57 am I have a really darkly toned Canberra Florin that was stored with some old reels of movie films for decades that I was about to image and the blasted battery on my camera went flat. I will post images when I have finished charging the battery Report this Post to the Staff

trout1105 Pillar of the Community Australia 7096 Posts	Posted 01/30/2017 12:37 pm This is the best I can do at the moment. Pretty hard to show the lustre on this coin but as you move it around in the light it is opalescent and the colours change. Report this Post to the Staff
jbuck Moderator United States 189340 Posts	Posted 01/30/2017 3:20 pm I can use my imagination regarding the full effect, but I like it. Coin Collector Since 1978 Avatar Old Avatar 7070 Eisenhower Australia Canada World CCF Members on eBay CCF eBay Search Engine Report this Post to the Staff

SilverDon Pillar of the Community Canada 2360 Posts	Posted 01/30/2017 3:57 pm This one is pretty black to look at, I got this picture at an angle and it exposed some flecks and variation. Copper coloured rim. Report this Post to the Staff

4mile123 Valued Member Canada 249 Posts	Posted 01/30/2017 7:45 pm Here's one that is quite dark but still has a nice look. There is a wide range of colours yet the coin still has great lustre. Report this Post to the Staff

GR58 Bedrock of the Community United States 11951 Posts	Posted 01/31/2017 06:17 am I see a lot of dark Seated coins .. I would like to have a set composed of coins just like this one. Report this Post to the Staff
