johnnysprawl Pillar of the Community Canada 1622 Posts	Posted 05/23/2018 2:19 pm It can be hard to take a good photo of coins; try cropping (zooming in) on the pennies and avoiding glare...makes it almost impossible to offer an opinion on grade. Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 05/23/2018 3:16 pm Right. Pics need to be larger and sharper. Report this Post to the Staff

JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21635 Posts	Posted 05/23/2018 4:09 pm CalmBud- In order to be able to grade a coin, the devices have to be clear and sharp in order to show the detail (or lack of). The pictures supplied are way too blurry too see anything. Also remove from 2x2 and crop photos. It may take a bit of practice and experimenting but you will get it eventually.

SPP-Ottawa Moderator Canada 10460 Posts	Posted 05/23/2018 10:23 pm Although the photos are not great, I am pretty sure those are PL (proof-like) strikes... the obverse rim is pretty darn thick and square...

Canacoins Pillar of the Community Canada 955 Posts	Posted 05/25/2018 01:01 am Good advice from JimmyD ( agree with SPP) . All the pictures I take are massive, 10-15 MB , then cropped and resized to meet the sites criteria . The first thing I learned is whatever your taking pic's with don't hold it . Use a camera stand or a cellphone between a couple of hefty books! As stated above practice and you'll get it. I did Report this Post to the Staff
