How to remove TrueView image background?

CentSearcher

I'm currently working on a project, and I would like to have the TrueView of my coins without the PCGS branding, cert number, and everything else. Normally I'd just use ellipse select on GIMP or an online circle cropper, but I want to keep both the obverse and reverse on the same image. Does anybody know the best way to do this?

Just remembered a way to do it, I'll put it here in case somebody else wants to know how.

If you go to PCGS CoinFacts and find your coin, you can click on "view more images" and scroll until you find your coin. This copy will have a plain white background. Not sure if this is the easiest way to do it, so if you have an alternative idea, let me know

Go to the pcgs site... https://images.pcgs.com/trueview/xxxxxxxx (type cert #)

Then you have the option to download the TV with just a white background or just an obverse or reverse. The other option includes a transparent background .. no cropping needed

Replace the numbers wi/h your specfic cert number

That’s exactly what I was looking for, thanks! The transparent option is especially useful
