Rainbow Toned 1913 T1 Buffalo Nickel (Terrible Pics... but I had to share!)

I LOVE this coin I just got. Since I'm away from my photography setup, the pictures are admittedly horrible because:
1- I'm not using a macro lens
2- I'm holding the coin and camera (usually, I hold neither)
3- My one light is a ceiling light a few feet above my head which I can't meter properly

So I apologize for the terrible shots, but you get the idea... the colors and lustre are pretty accurate, except there's more color and it's brighter/more vibrant. The surfaces are rough with lots of the orange peel texture that's common for the date. I'll have better pictures when I get back to Boston in late August image

    Looks GORGEOUS! I'm a big fan of the buffaloes, yes I am. I can't wait to see better pics, but even from this pic I can see why you are excited about it. image

    Nope, I'm getting extra smart here in LA... but part of the deal was that my entire photography setup is locked away on the wrong coast image

    From shots like the two you have put up a person can tell that the color is the real deal. Personally I would rather see more shots like this on this forum.
