Let me know if the image is too bright, contrast low, and sharpness quality, thanks.

i think your photos are great. just enough light. MS64RD. could make 65 but I'm thinking the jaw and cheek abrasions and a tad soft strike could hold it back

Looks good! I can see cartwheel spokes! The color and lighting look pretty spot on.

Is there dust on the coin? I see specks all over, I keep canned air on my coindesk when this happens to me. Suggest a white background so the viewer can gauge your lighting and white balance. The picture size is a bit small. I've found around 800x800 to 1000x1000 works well for the web. You're only at 450x450.

@BadThad, great pics! What canned air brand do you use? Also, if you use diffusers, is it a brand or just sheets of cloth or paper?

My canned air is whatever is on sale a Microcenter when I go.

I don't use diffusers, I've found they take away the luster too much compared to direct light. Currently, I'm using this simple light:

Also, I do not use post processing other than to resize my pictures. Personally, I don't believe in ANY photo manipulation. Everything should be done with your camera and lighting IMO. If you're applying a bunch of filters and adjustments, then you didn't take good pictures to start. LOL
