    Sorry about the snipe. I need to redo the image. I did not really capture the detail or the reflective fields on this one.

    I find that my gaze is drawn to the sublime beauty of this token. My very soul weeps with the knowledge that is shall never be mine, that it is the Air-Tite of another which holds it close at night. In the earth and the heavens overhead and all the most secret places of this world can there be any to match it in splendor?

    Try shooting with the angled glass to pick up the reflectivity of the fields. I noticed it worked nice on certain coppers I have. It sometimes gives them more of a cameo appearance too.
