How many TrueView generations / varieties are there?


I've seen the two more recent versions with the consistent white logo background and where the center is brighter. The below is the first I've seen of this generation / variety:

  • First generation TrueView template ran from around the ANA 2005 until about June of 2010. The pixel size of these images were 4400 x 2220.

    In June of 2010 I wanted to try something different with the template, and moved toward the blue gradient template as this was sort of the color of our labels. I had also upgraded our cameras which had a higher megapixel count, so the new template was larger (5757 x 2905) which it the size it currently is today. However, like New Coke, people were accustomed to the old template and didn't particularly like it. So I changed it back... sort of.

    There are some changes with some of the type size and with the logo, as well as a change in the gradient in the background.

    Please tell me that the categorization of TrueViews is not a "thing".

    When TrueViews FIRST STARTED COMING WITH SECURE they were all posted with a 100% White Background and no mention of PCGS at all. So, that would be a version as well.

    Some coins have been photographed using more than 1 TrueView generation. It's actually kind of cool IMO.
