Coin Photography Contest Semi Finals - Group 1


In order to come up with a winner there will be four groups to vote on. Each group will contain the finished images (obverse and reverse) of six contestants. There will be separate voting on obverse and reverse images.
You will vote on your favorite obverse image and favorite reverse image from each group. The four group winners of the obverse image and the four group winners of the reverse image will be included in the finals.
The voting on the first four groups will run for one week. The final tally will include the votes from both NGC and PCGS message boards. The final group will also run one week. Contestants with the most votes for obverse and reverse images will each receive $100, although it is possible for one person to walk away with $200. No names will be used until the voting is over.
Thank you for all who participated in this 8 month long contest. Thank you in advance to all who participate in the voting.

2- closest to tru-view
3- closest to coin (I guess I can't do that since I have not viewed the coin in person)

<< <i>I am not a big fan of tru views. They look like cartoons and oever saturated, but are we picking the coin that looks closest to the tru view? >>
Not at all. I just posted the TrueView to show on version of it's appearance. Vote on the image you like the best.

In person the coin is somewhat dark and very shiny. This sucker has great color when tilted in the light! It's a real Gem, IMO! From the contest images you can see that many of us had trouble with the glare off of the slab, something that the TruView photographer did not have to deal with.
Cheers!
