jbuck Moderator United States 192407 Posts	Posted 02/04/2018 12:02 am Not sure about the cent. It looks okay to me, but I might be missing something. I do love that Peace dollar though.

Cross-eyed Pillar of the Community United States 849 Posts	Posted 02/04/2018 08:57 am Well, I was only asking about the LWC.I haven't seen one so vividly blue before. So I thought I'd ask. Thanks anyhow. I fell in love with the '21 as soon as He brought it out to show Me. It fits in real nice with the rest of the Peace set.

It might be worth posting that one in the US Modern section to get BadThad's attention.

paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 02/06/2018 9:57 pm This is a "side grade" for my Registry, it is the same grade as the other (66) but with much nicer toning.

spru Bedrock of the Community United States 12477 Posts	Posted 02/20/2018 03:00 am Those look very interesting, HuguesGervais. It looks like fluorescent paint under a blacklight. How did you take those pics? I'm just curious.

HuguesGervais Valued Member Canada 74 Posts	Posted 02/20/2018 08:31 am @spruett001 I have a very good setup and as pro-amateur photographer, it help to get the best image (no photoshop so colour are real). Nikon 36Mega-pixels D800, plus macro lens )100mm/f2.8), tripod, mirror-lock to minimize vibration, f16 of f22 to get more depth of field, white balance to get real colour, taken in dark room with only 1 light source (very important as multiple light source from different angle will wash-out the colour). I rotate to find the best angle that show best colour. Even more important when slabbed. And I adjust the angle with object I put under the fabric so I have the optimum light for that coin.
