Just Reimaged Some Washingtons

image I think these turned out fairly well. These were taken with one 13W OTT-LITE centered about three feet over the coin.

    Very nice...only thing is, I'd rather see more of the coin and less of the holder.

    Can I suggest:

    Stop by an auto parts store and pick up a can of "Never Dull". It is a can of cotton with a small amount of polishing compound.

    Works WONDERS on Slabs...

  • I was thinking the same thing, less holder and more coin...

    But now I see both... I like the first set of photos better for some reason...

    In any event... Very nice and thanks for sharing...image

  • honestly i like the size of the first pictures. i like seeing a coin as you would with your eyes naturally.... i dont like looking at my coins at 5x or 10x magnification too often, as i enjoy their beauty.... not their imperfections

    Very nice. Getting closer to that proffesional look. I agree though looks like the slabs could use some touching up. That might clear some of the detail up a bit.
