Thought I'd share what I stumbled across this evening.
Albanese Hall of Fame!
There are two ways to conquer and enslave a nation. One is by the sword. The other is by debt.

It's a poor picture of a fine coin.
In fact, I see serious issues in most of the pictures on that website.
Someone is pushing the contrast well over what it should be; they should be using better lighting instead of relying on image processing.
Whenever I see colorful saturated pixels in the darker areas of the coin, it's an indication of overprocessing.
I'm sure i'll catch flak for my criticism. But I know good photos and I know ones that ought to be better, darnit.
