Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 01/14/2022 7:35 pm First set of pics has too much glare to give a good view of the coin's surfaces. Last pic is too dark for the same reason. Report this Post to the Staff

John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 01/15/2022 05:01 am kkjjaa69, What are you using to take photos? Cameras make & model, light source? There is too much glare and pics are out of focus. John1 Edited by John1 01/15/2022 05:01 am Report this Post to the Staff

Zurie Pillar of the Community United States 5676 Posts	Posted 01/15/2022 10:40 am The surfaces are hard to assess due to the lighting, but I'd guess around an MS-64. The last photos are better, but the reverse looks like there might be some PVC damage. It might benefit from an acetone soak. Report this Post to the Staff

kkjjaa69 New Member United States 46 Posts	Posted 01/15/2022 12:11 pm My setup is a cell phone. Lol. I need to invest, I believe, in a photo light source and something to hold camera or phone. I shake pretty bad. I really appreciate all of your comments. Thank you Report this Post to the Staff
Zurie Pillar of the Community United States 5676 Posts	Posted 01/15/2022 12:39 pm You should be able to get decent pics with a cell phone. Just place the phone on a stack of books over the coin on a white sheet of paper, and use a timer delay to eliminate shake. Report this Post to the Staff
