AU-50 wouldn't surprise. Just looks dull, probably due to years of storage.

Better lighting might bring out the super details of these coins you're showing.

Try working on the lighting some. For reference here is a mint state 30-S. Your light needs to show some indication of cartwheel spokes (luster) and I think we're missing that in all your pictures.

My pics look good when I take them but when I look at them on the computer they look dull, I don't know how to fix this.

What sort of lighting are you using? This is surely the problem.

Looks like it's probably more representative of the coin. Do you have the ability to modify your white balance on your camera?

This is the light I'm using:

For lights I use 3 Jansjo led lights OR I can use an axle light.
The last pics are with the 3 lights.
I'm not sure if the white balance is right and not sure how to do it.

I think the wear on the upper wheat ears holds this to VF.
