I know I have posted this coin on other threads but wanted to see which one people seemed to like the best. Take a look at the three and vote for one or none and I would love to hear comments.

#1


#2


#3

I like number 3, it shows the contrast, still shows that she was whacked a bit in the face but not as bad as #2, although #2's contrast is best.

woodardcoin

I like the contrast of #3 Gives it a deep cameo look

STONE

They are all really nice and I would love to be able to take images like these anytime.

My favorite was #2 though.

tightbudget

2 and 3 are good, but I chose 3.

Raybo

Nice!

Flea-bay would like #3 IMHO.

Shamika

I like #3

Bochiman

If it were just for my viewing pleasure, #3.
If I were selling it on ebay, then #2 and #3 as I believe there would be an opportunity to get a return or upset customer about her cheek if the only picture was #3

HighRelief

My vote is for #3 showing the nice contrasting.

#2

I voted for #2, but basically I just don't like #1.

DJCoinz

Tough call...either 2 or 3.

blu62vette

Almost a dead heat. I am surprised there are not more for #1. I dont care for #1 but when I posted a pic similar to it people seemed to like it.

ricko

#2... overall best eye appeal... Cheers, RickO

I think pic #1 is probably the conservative or what might be the what the coin actually looks like in hand. I would feel more comfortable with this photo in the event I did not know the seller.

Pic #3 shows the coin in the best light, I would think the pics are a little on the juiced side if I did not know the seller.

This is a good example of how pic can differ for the same coin. Thanks for sharing.

#2 has the best lighting on the relief.

Animalkeeper

No. 3

Nice pics.

Anybody want to break the tie?

I'm for #3- looks like you could dive into a pool on the fields.

Pretty coin.

#2 here

If I'm the buyer I want to see #1 and #2 as it shows the hits and other defects the best. As a seller I'd go with #3.

Number 3

Pandavab

I believe no. 2 shows her nicely without trying to hide her flaws. So for me, that is what makes it the best photo. The third photo I feel hides too much.

How did you get three coins with the same grade and registration number?

messydesk

#2 has the most complete information about the coin -- mirrors, luster, face whack, contrast. #3 is a close second, but it would get you a return if someone were to buy the coin based on the picture.

If it was for my personal records, I want the one that most resembles the actual coin. If I were a buyer, I'd also want that. #2 probably fills that bill the best, but #3 is the most attractive image in my opinion.

#2 & # 3

Edscoin

All are nice, I would have to say #3 shows the best Eye appeal. But I would think #1 probably looks more like the coin in hand.

blu62vette

Thanks for bringing this thread back up. This coin isnt going anywhere and I believe I have #2 in my iTouch to refer to it. The cameo contrast on this coin has led to some fun close-up shots.

Stuart

For aesthetics, I think that Image #3 makes the coin appear to look the best, because it does not accentuate the cheek contact marks as much as images 1 and 2.
