SilverStackerKid Pillar of the Community United States 6478 Posts	Posted 04/27/2015 9:06 pm Usually ebayers like to make it look a lot, a lot, a lot more proof like with this one lighting trick. I don't know what it is. But is is a lighting trick. Report this Post to the Staff

rynegold Valued Member United States 249 Posts	Posted 04/27/2015 9:44 pm Got it; thanks for the tip folks. Yes it doesn't look like it should. Several peps on the other previous thread about this seller mentions special lighting etc. but looking at the pix again; they're low res. and.... "someone" has had hold of the contrast, color and gamma features on photoshop! Edited by rynegold 04/27/2015 9:45 pm Report this Post to the Staff
SsuperDdave Moderator United States 23522 Posts	Posted 04/27/2015 9:56 pm This one will be "close" to PL, and frosty like they get. It's not like the guy doesn't have some meat to work with. Here's one he couldn't quite get what he wanted out of, so he listed it unenhanced: http://www.ebay.com/itm/MORGAN-DOLL...281665808826 Look at his other listings. He has no trouble whatsoever demonstrating reflectivity if he wishes. Report this Post to the Staff

You can even see where it bled onto the fields at certain places. Note his recent Neutral, and the coin which earned it. Report this Post to the Staff
Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17884 Posts	Posted 04/28/2015 10:44 am Back in the 70's these were known as "California Prooflikes". I've even seen a couple of Peace dollars done up like this. Report this Post to the Staff
