Marve65 Pillar of the Community United States 5214 Posts	Posted 03/16/2025 7:03 pm Better but can't get a feel for the surfaces. Can't tell in MS, AU, or circulated. Report this Post to the Staff

nickelsearcher Bedrock of the Community United States 13469 Posts	Posted 03/22/2025 06:29 am Photo clarity is good enough, but the image does not convey what is going on with the surfaces as far as luster goes. Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art Too many hobbies .... too much work .... not enough time. Report this Post to the Staff

captainkurt Pillar of the Community United States 1391 Posts	Posted 03/22/2025 3:56 pm Phots are getting better but it looks like you are using one light source. I find that if I have two I can get better contrast. I use indirect natural light from a window and then have a lamp on the opposing side of the coin. The two angles can really show the surface details. Sometimes too well showing every little defect. I'll post a 64d Jefferson in another thread and you will clearly see the yellow light from the lamp from the left and the white natural light from the right. Try not to wash out the coin with the natural light. Less reflection and let the flaws in the coin show. The goal is an accurate assessment, not inflated grades due to photo tricks.
