This is the second time I have photographed gold. Feel free to comment on the pics. Second set of pics was taken with different lighting. I personally can't tell much difference.

Since I already know the grade on this one I won't comment. Can't really see much difference in the two sets of photos. Both look pretty good to me.

Excellent pictures.
The high points of the design both sides have just barely enough wear to be flat spotted, so in my opinion this coin just fails to make an AU grade.

Good job all. I am terrible at grading copper and gold coins, especially from pics. Thanks

I normally suck at grading gold but I was dead on right on this.

I disagree on this one, looks like an XF-45 to me. maybe they are lenient when it comes to wear, because honestly these fields have seen better days and there's quite a significant amount of wear on the bottom portion of her hair, and on the wreath on the reverse.
