Poll Question
Second verse almost like the first. This time it's the reverse (sorta rhymes). I am about to list this 1930 Standing Liberty quarter (Older ANACS Holder MS63 FH) on ebay, and would like to know "which image(s) would best sell it?" It is the same coin, just different lighting positions. I am going to do two polls; one for obverse and one for reverse. More than likely I will post images of the two (maybe three) of the "viewers choice" in my listing, in addition to the full slab. Your participation is greatly appreciated! (A)  (B)  (C)  (D)

A, B and C seem almost out-of-focus. D is sharpest and clearest.

A. Is lacking detail but has good color. B. Probably accurately shows that scuff in front of left wing and shows what looks like a hit under beak best, ( but it might just be a toning spot ) details is great, color is washed out. C.Hides that scuff, nice image and matching color for the obverse image you will most likely use but I think that the scuff needs shown. D.Is probably the most accurate to relay what the coin condition is but a bit too bright to use with your obverse pick. I vote for B without reading others opinions. Here's my pair from both posts. I liked D for obv first but to make a matching pair, I think this is a nice combo. C obv B rev.  Here's something I made up quick for a gallery image and feel free to use it if you want.

I need to see if "Gimp" software will "stitch" images together.

Thanks Nickelguy, I will see if the color in the insert on the reverse will "bleach out" I am not sure why it looks blue...I can blame it on the solar flares that we had last week.

I wouldn't worry about the background too much.

I just got my "new to me" camera, Canon SD790 IS. I will see if a 10 megapixel image can bring out some more details, than the 5 megapixels above.
