    Is coin #22 a Two-headed cent? image Seems the one that I imaged had both a reverse and obverse imageimage

    Confusing coin contest is confusing.

    It's hard to believe these images are all the same coin! Goes to show just how difficult it is to capture a complex 3-D object in 2-D. Kudos to all who attempted this beast!

    There are some nice photos here. It is interesting to see the differencese of different images of the same coin.

    Having tried to photograph a brilliant proof in the past I know that these can be tough.

    It will be interesting to see which of the four obverse and two reverse images we get to chose for the final.

    If you could average out 22 and 23 I think it would be the winner.

    I like seeing all the different images, though I wish people would vote and not make any comments....it kind of gets people looking at a certain image, or more critical.
    Enough people didn't see the coin, while a fair number did, that they could be easily influenced.

    Not saying this as someone who took a shot (I did), but as someone who has noticed the same thing over the years and wishes that people would refrain from making specific comments until after all is said and done.

    I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment
