Before:
Constantine-I-Improved-Pic
After (under the midday sun):
Constantine-I-Improved-Pic (click to enlarge)

With most of my pictures I feel that I didn't completely share my coins' attractiveness with you guys the first time around, so I'll be posting improved pics of them from time to time. This one is my Constantine I minted in Trier.

I wonder which one actually looks closer to in hand.

Color-wise, the first one, but it is darker in the pic than in hand. The second one is lighter than how it is in hand but the details are well illuminated and is closer overall IMO to the actual coin.

Nice, daylight really brought out the details!

I do the same thing--it's a worthwhile challenge to capture how the coin looks in-hand.

I like the after pic. It shows off the nice details of the coin that I couldn't see in the before image. I prefer outdoor daylight pics when I can.
