philney Valued Member United States 231 Posts	Posted 02/20/2008 02:04 am I have a 1981 Type 2 proof set and I cannot get the thing to take a good picture. ebay has cancelled my listing twice now and I am getting frustrated. I know the case is what's getting in the way, but is there any way to get past this without cracking the set? I have already tried the scanner and digital camera. Report this Post to the Staff

If it is, try shooting through angled glass (there was a thread on this about three weeks ago with pics of the set-up). You won't be able to use a macro setting because you won't be able to get the lens close enough, but you can shoot the shot with a normal (auto) setting with the highest picture quality setting. Then, crop the shot with the mintmark. Report this Post to the Staff

Is it Type 2 because it has photo capabilities built in? How many megapixels is it? (sorry, I couldn't resist) Report this Post to the Staff
