    Your images are not picking up any of the coin's contrast.

    Those spots aren't really spots I don't think, that's normal though I think.

    Congratulations...did you "make" it or purchase it? That's a VERY difficult coin for those who don't know.

    Purchased it from Stuppler & Company, really really really friendly and great guy. Think I'm done with ASE until they fix the spotting so I started looking at Franklins and Morgans lately.

    Much better image of the contrast Absolution. That's a hard date to find in DCAM even more so in PR68DCAM. Congrats!!

    Beware that proof Franklins can and do spot shortly after being slabbed, you may wish to attempt to find coins that have been slabbed for some time, whenever possible.

    I thought spotting was because of a process they used for making the coin?

    Thanks all =)
