First off, I still can't believe I won the copy stand from mgoodm3. What a great giveaway.
I kept looking at it this weekend and asking my wife "Can you believe I won this?!"
After setting it up, I pulled out a few coins that I had around the house and started taking some photos. I will say that I'm still pretty new to photographing my coins, and certainly have a lot to learn. The copy stand works marvelously, however, my photos aren't really capturing the colors as accurately as I would like. I guess I need to practice or change lighting positions.
Here's a photo I took of an interestingly toned SLQ. It's got dark spotty toning, with a little red and blue in the 3 to 5 o'clock area that doesn't show up so well.
Anyway, I wanted to officially thank mgoodm3 for the great prize. I can't believe the generosity of so many members around here. I think I'll have a giveaway when a reach a post milestone, but from the looks of things, we could be waiting a while.
