Sometimes the color is on the wrong side

I'm trying to post four pictures at one time. they all have nice reverse color the 85-cc is prooflike.

The 83 is actually a deep purple with green highlights. Not really black.

    I could get a better idea of how pretty they are if you didn't tweak your picts so bad. The coins look very dark and some black and the inserts look white and I know that they are not.
    Change that we can believe in is that change which is 90% silver.

    When coins like that get graded, how do you get them to put the reverse to the label side?

    Great coins!

    fcloud - if you request it of the grading companys they will do it.

    dog97- you obviously do not know tweaked photo from one that has to much light reflected on it. I have said before that these photos are direct from a 35mm to disc to computer. I have useed a large cutting board to reflect daylight on the coins when I took the pictures. It would stand to reason that if I lighten the photo the coin would get lighter along with the label.

    paigowjohnny- just keep looking baby, just keep looking. they show up in the darndest places.image

    I like tone no matter which side.
  • Wow, those are all nice Morgans. Congratulations! Now, why in the world would you exile such beautiful coins to such cold, dark, damp plastic tombs????

    Beautiful coins! I love beautiful toning regardless of which side it is on. Now that the grading services are reverse holdering deserving coins it's much easier to display and enjoy them! Thanks for sharing these with us!

    That's right! I really don't & I really didn't want to say BAD picture but since you know what is wrong with it fix it so we can see it better because I really like a pretty Morgan. image
