I'm going through my old coins and figured showing one off once in a while wouldn't be bad. I'll try to stick to some of the more interesting ungraded ones! Let me know if this is interesting.   |

I'd say VG or so. Showing your images right-side up will pull in more replies. We are not laying on our sides.   to the CCF! |

I'll have to retake them later; my phone doesn't take great pictures so I've had to borrow another when I take photos. Thanks for the rating!

Use the Preview button to check the orientation of your pics before posting. |

It appears you already ran the image through the Image Opimizer and there is a rotate icon in the upper left when you hover over the image. Crop the image while you're there. Like this.  |

Use the Preview button to check the orientation of your pics before posting. That does not always work. The problem is there are two ways to orient and image: The way the image data is stored in the file or in the metadata added to the image file. Smartphones tend to always store the image data in the "portrait" format and rely on metadata to display the orientation (portrait or landscape) on the device. The problem means the image almost always looks correct on the device, even when it looks wrong to us. I blame Apple.  All that being said, you should always use the Free Image Optimizer or some other program to process the images (crop, resize, etc) before uploading to CCF. |

My 20-year old Kodak doesn't have that problem! Same.  However, my 20 year old Kodak Easy Share does not take good coin photos. Not that my Moto android phone is much better.  |

Thanks for the notes regarding the image optimizer rotate tool! I'd thought I'd done so but it came out turned. Guess not!   Edited by CuriousCoinGuy

Fairly worn but a really nice honest example. F-15, perhaps. Not FBL :)
