Got this for my 7070. I think high AU. Paid $235 'cause of the "ding" in the field under the nose. (I think these are my best pictures of a gold coin too!) Thanks in advance, A. Image: 19112nhafgold1.jpg67.25 KB Image: 19112nhafgold2.jpg64.49 KB

Has it been cleaned? Or it might be the lighting

Very nice, the ding is small so I don't think it will effect the grade. Going to say AU-55.

Properly graded and well-bought, in my opinion. I've been thinking about an LED rig for lighting, acidic1 - how is yours set up?

You might want to get one of these. I love it. I just can't come up with a bad thing to say about it. It will get you RIGHT down on a coin.
...but you probably already have one...do you?.

Nope. I've got a QX5 for the really tiny details, but the dSLR is the workhorse of my imaging efforts. Remember, for me the pictures are as much a part of collecting as the coins themselves - I "specialize" not in a particular issue, but in coin photography.

I gotta get a real camera, but every time I get the money together, A coin gets in the way.

Yeah, in ten years that Blu-Ray player will be in a dump somewhere...

Nice AU. Great pictures too, though the lighting definitely makes it look polished IMO. Does it have remaining cartwheel luster?
