Lets see some coin pics.

mgoodm3 · September 18, 2004 12:32PM

Brown and RB copper has a lot of texture and variety to the color that looks really nice.

JRH · September 18, 2004 12:34PM

Great photo (of penny).

mgoodm3, what camera and setup are you using? Those are really excellent images of a RB Lincoln.

My 1892 bodybagged baby. It's actually shiny and not dull dipped gray like the scan shows.

Agreed. If I remember correctly, mgoodm3 is using a Nikon D70 with a 105mm macro lens.

Speaking of Nikon's, check out this monster digital SLR just announced by Nikon: Nikon D2X

K6AZ · September 18, 2004 1:08PM

I was betting those images came from a SLR camera. Really sharp.

nwcs · September 18, 2004 1:08PM

Some halves

You are correct, sir. SLR's make it all so easy.

I really like that 1827 Bust Half Neil. What grade is it?

WWW · September 18, 2004 1:15PM

I need to re-image this PCGS MS66 Kennedy as it looks much better in person:

Rerun: scanner versus camera...

Cheapo scanner I've been using for too long:

Not-so-cheapo camera I haven't been using long enough:

pursuitofliberty · September 18, 2004 1:15PM

I agree ... great picture of the cent ...

Here's a 00-s Barber I've had for a few years ... newly photograhed ... from a new camera, and at a great dinner party this week

That's a nice looker for a 58.

That 1884cc morgan is unlike any I've seen. I like it.

That was one that came out of my dad's collection, a ANCS 64 DMPL. It went to a good home with another board member. It was a sharp coin, and I would have kept it for myself except for the fact that I am swimming in CCs right now.

Thanks WWW!

Someday I'll photoshop that ugly medium grey backgound to a nice white or black. I've just been too lazy.

JRH · September 18, 2004 2:05PM

Stuart and WWW ........ WOW

oldcameoproofsguy · September 18, 2004 2:06PM

WWW,

That is an exceptionally clear image of that seated half.

What camera setup are you using?

WWW · September 18, 2004 2:19PM

WWW, That is an exceptionally clear image of that seated half. What camera setup are you using?

Thanks, I use a Nikon CoolPix 5000 and natural light imaged late in the day to reduce glare off the slab.

Here's a better one.

WWW · September 18, 2004 2:30PM

Hey ms70, I love that icon coin of yours. One of the few I imaged using artificial light.

K6AZ · September 18, 2004 2:33PM

NOT FOR SALE please don't ask...

oldcameoproofsguy · September 18, 2004 2:37PM

K6AZ,

That 1799 gold is way too cool!

Pennycase · September 18, 2004 2:38PM

Sorry the pics don't look so good, used the webcam to take snapshot.

K6AZ · September 18, 2004 2:43PM

<< That 1799 gold is way too cool! >>

Thanks. It is the pride and joy of my collection, and my most valuable coin. It's a 1799 $10, NGC MS61. I added the disclaimer because last time I posted it, I had twenty plus inquiries asking if it was for sale. It is part of my early Bust type gold set.

Thanks! I'm in the painstaking process of imaging all of my coins & I re-shot that one. I had a really difficult time getting the same effect
you did but it came out pretty good! I figure I'll be about 100 by the time I get them all done the way I want them!
