How the hell is Heritage imaging their full slab PCGS coppers these days?

They have lost all touch with reality when it comes to imaging small cents in PCGS slabs.
They've thrown white balance completely out the window and resorted to ultra brightness.
An example.
Compare the PCGS labels, and the realistic look of the plastic, on these two coins. Heritage vs. normal.
It doesn't get any worse than this.

Yes it does. Check out their gold coins images.

Copper generally looks much too dark when imaged with a scanner. Looks like they adjusted the
image to make the coin look "right" at the expense of the slab.
"Seu cabra da peste,
"Sou Mangueira......."
or an hour to get a "just right" image of a coin which might earn them a few dollars commission?
Why do you think the photo-proof services charge $40 or $50 to image a coin?
Until very recently, most auctioned coins (except for the showcased "plated" coins) had no images
at all, or at best a black and white halftone made up of dots.
