As most of you know, I'm a Morgan Collector, but I do appreciate nice coins in other series:

    Sorry Neil, it isn't my coin. image

    I need to work on these a little more, I'm finding dimes are quite a bit different to image than dollars.

    Always looking for original, better date VF20-VF35 Barber quarters and halves, and a quality beer.

    this may be so Eric, but that is only the tip of the iceberg in your heresy!! Next thing we know, you'll be showing pictures of toned Darkside stuff!! image

    You forgot to glue the "S" on there.

    Im going to have to work on my setup. This one didn't come out as nice as I would hope. The marks on the obverse are on the holder, not the coin.

    A nice toned Barber dime is a thing of beauty. Especially when it has luster to boot. Thanks.

    Very nice!

    Thanks for the compliments. I have a total of seven Barber dimes here ranging from MS63 to MS65. I am still working on the best settings to image these. I'll post some more as I get them.

    Here is the 1904 again. I have finally managed to get the entire coin in focus. These sure are tough to figure out!

    Yeah, more zoom image I usually keep the camera about 4 inches above the coin and try to get the main light as vertical as possible without casting a shadow of the camera on the coin.
