"Sattelite Photgraphy" cracks me up, so post and example from eBay.

I found this one earlier today and though it isn't a really extreme example it fits the bill. This one can be enlarged a bit with the "enlarge" option, but post one if you can and we'll see who can come up with the smallest image that a bidder is expected to bid from.

    You should write the seller and ask if they could get a shot of the coin just a bit further away.....after all, you can still tell it's a coin.

    I am amazed that people even bid on these. Cheers, RickO

    I think it is kinda like the lotto. You might score if you get lucky.

    I don't know what you guys are talking about. They all look fine. Of course I did have telescopes put into my eye.

    yeah, that last one is pretty bad. the worst i've seen have a single coin about the same size as that picture, absent the holder. it almost looked like someone took a picture of a circle they drew on some paper!!image

    Here would be a good one for broadstruck or errorcoin to jump on.

    LOL, the one can not be deciphered. Horribly too small. Plus, to minor of an error. Go for it as I wont be in the bidding.

    Thank you tho for looking out for us image

    I haven't seen a good piece of this type of photography in a while. Knew this thread existed, so I figured for some Sunday fun I'd bring it to the top with this gem.
