SadiesAngel Valued Member United States 184 Posts	Posted 08/21/2015 10:50 pm Is this Deterioration? Or MD? I can see the doubling front and back, but still can't figure out what I'm seeing. Nice looking nickel though. Looks like it's brand new. Report this Post to the Staff

SadiesAngel Valued Member United States 184 Posts	Posted 08/22/2015 12:49 am Thank you Coop. I will try to get better pictures and re-do it tomorrow. I was having a hard time with the lighting and the nickel was very shiny which I thought was odd being a 1964 coin. I will try another way tomorrow and hopefully you guys can help me out with this one. Thank you for trying. Report this Post to the Staff

I've even used two sheets of paper to reduce the excess light. This works good for full image shots. The image were taken from a camera with a "macro" feature. I use this system to show color of the central coin for full image shots. On closeup images I take images through a microscope with limited lighting.

SadiesAngel Valued Member United States 184 Posts	Posted 08/22/2015 12:54 pm Thank you Stoneman and Coop. I'll have to set up some lighting like this. I use the same light but didn't use the paper, great idea! I'll be back later with hopefully better pictures. Thank you. PS Coop I love that Terrace Coin. That's absolutely beautiful!
