Awesome proof set find!!

Myqqy

My digital camera hates coins, but I wanted to learn a little bit about posting photos here. This proof set just came in the mail today, as I had just purchased it from centennialcoins on ebay. The photo doesn't do much justice to the set, but I wanted to give a little endorsement of this ebay seller. The set cost a total of $12.50 with shipping, and the franklin is a full blown cameo gem! The quarter looks very close to cam, and the rest of the set is very gemmy. Even the nickel has a gorgeous even champagne tone on both sides... Sometimes ebay can provide some very wonderful finds.... But now I have to work on better pictures...

Myqqy: Very nice proof set find at a very reasonable price. I'd love to see close-up photos of the Franklin Half when you get a chance to take them...

Yeah that Franklin looks cool - nice find for $12.50

(Will you take $15 for it?)

I for one, along with many others, refuse to purchase proof sets out of their original mint packaging for fear of finger prints, etc. Congrets on beating the odds.

I was having a lot of problems posting coin pics as well, until I read this thread.

Has some excellent tips on calibrating your digital camera and setting up lighting for taking pictures. Get your product manual ready!

Thanks for the tip Harbon- I recently downloaded that 8 page essay, and am going to read it this weekend......
