Speaking of difficult coins to image...

Mirrored, deeply toned and copper has got to be the toughest combination of attributes to image. Good scanners can get the toning but are lacking in other areas, while most digital camera shots miss the toning completely. The two Goldberg IH proof reverses on top are the same coins as the Heritage pics below them.

Wow, quite a difference between the 2 shots. I agree completely with what you said about copper. Mark.
