Okay, I am so excited about this image and I must share, because for me it is a milestone. This is the first picture of a Lincoln proof I am proud of, and the results are reproducible. Considering how many Lincoln proof toners I have, and the fact that my ultimate goal is to photograph every favorite coin in my collection.. it's a real cause for celebration! You see, as a collector, this is what I do. Some people achieve nirvana when they fill the last hole in their book. When I see a coin I like, I see a version of it in my head, and I need to photograph it just like I see it. Getting that photograph is my nirvana. And it's just for me. And it is my art.

@Mama...that is a gorgeous coin, and you did a wonderful job with the photography. I'm very much like you. I consider coin collecting an art as much as it is a hobby. Though I'm far from a professional, I love photographing coins. At some point, I'd like to make a calendar displaying my 12 favorite coins. It would be nice to see some of these hanging on the wall all big and pretty.  @Trout...I love that electric blue. I was actually planning to photograph one of my coins this weekend that has electric blue on the reverse.
