Feedback on another toned coin with new pics.

mnmcoin

Thank you to mbbiker for the advice on the tripod it seems that is a missing link to some more fined tuned pics I have been working on.

Sencond take a look at the three pics, all of one coin...a toned merc dime. Let me know what you all think. Also, do you think it is neccessary to take a pic with the pcgs label showing, or can you pretty much tell when the pic has been doctored. It just seems on the zoomed in pics, you can show the colors better. Also, even though these are far better than what I have done in the past it just seems like you can't quite show all the nuances of the tone, for instance the shadows kind of hide the complete rainbow from rim to where the toning stops, the pic looks kind of broken and speckled, where the tone is actually smooth and perfect. Any advice on that?

pics are a bit bright - too much contrast? the label color looks all wrong.

nice pics, nice dime!

I like the 3 picture format, this is the one I prefer when shopping online:
closeup of obverse
coseup of reverse
both to see detail of coin
wide angle of whole slab, so's I can tell the coin in the obv. close pic is the coin in the slab, and to get other info such as the type of slab (as in period), and maybe look up it's reg number. also if the insert color is true so I can compare to any color on the piece

if a color coin has a shift or shows better at an angle, or if a coin is extremely lusterous, I think it is worth the seller's (and buyer's) while to spring for another 15 cents for an angle shot, or for that matter, macro shots of any unusual feature of the coin, whether a benefit or a liability to the coin.
