Toned Coin Pics - What'dya Think?

Gonfunko

I was messing with my camera this evening when I decided to try to get some good toning shots. After 2 or 3, I found the best combination yet. Here are some of the first shots, without the glass box method too! There's something for everyone who collects moderns - Lincolns, Jeffs, Frankies, and Roosies. These coins are pretty much the only toned ones I have..maybe I need to pay a visit to the BST. So - look at the pics and tell me what you think about the coins and the pictures.






So - what'dya think?

Problem solved, even though it isn't the best toning.

Nice pics, but I only like the nickle too.

The Jeff looks AT to me.

I was wondering if that would come up. Either way, though, it sure is pretty! FYI, it came with the dime, cent, and first half in a capital board 1953 Proof Set from eBay. The quarter wasn't included.

The pics look a little grey, not real sharp (but 1000% better than I've been able to achieve)

Maybe a little more light or a different angle to give them a litle more life? It looks like some of that color might be better than what is showing through.
