Need opinion on which image is better - Stephen penny

ajaan

You think #1, #2, or not much difference. Can you see the portrait in each image?

#1



#2

Hyperion

IMHO #1

coinpictures

The biggest difference to me is the color. Which is closer to the coin in hand?

Also, the representation of the surfaces is different; without personally seeing the coin, I like the detail and sense of depth of #2

I don't like the cropping of #2 though. Then again, I don't like to crop pictures of slabbed coins, especially irregular ones; it just doesn't work well.

Slab label was poorly done on #2.

Slab label intrudes on coin boundary on #1.

Can see portait clearly on both... if I know to look for it.

I like #2, the details are more bold.

I also prefer #2

#1 - detail comes across more clearly.

I'm probably way off base here, but I think those are two pics of the same coin.

Syracusian

Number one.

Not way off base. Same coin, different image of same coin.

#2

Number 2 looks better, but number 1 shows more detail.
