Beautiful! That's an interesting die crack.

Yeah...Really nice coin and your camera's a good'n...nice image. I love silver that has an abundance of russet and gold toning when it isn't overpowered by the electric blues. And that young lady has some serious cleavage!

Very nice seated dime and great pictures.

Thanks. I like the russet tone as well but my pics seem to show more than there really is.
Even with a custom white balance I get the same thing. I'm not doing something right.
I know I need to get the shutter speed up a bit to get a sharper image but I don't have enough light.
I'm wondering if the slow shutter speed is causing part of the problem?

Larry, you will get the best depth of field at a 1/500 shutter speed and F stop great than 5.0. I use a Nikon Coolpix 995 and shot all my images outside in natural sunlight. You can check out my images at the website.

Cool. At first I thought it was an 1866-P then rembered the sloping date that Ray always mention. Then on the reverse you can barely make out the faded S mint mark. Cool crack as well.
