Here is a beauty that was sent to me by Ronyahski for winning a grading contest on these boards a few years back.
Remember this one Ronyahski ?
She is still in my collection
Years ago is was Russ who took the finest photos and then quickly TomB and a few others surpased him. Now you sir offer the best I've seen! Don't know your secret(s) yet your coins always look like they're going to jump off my screen, right at me.

My secret is that I don't image them, Bob Campbell does. I do agree with you, he does an excellent job.

Here's another one imaged by Bob. I keep it raw in one of my Danscos...
The setting up of other roads To travel on in old accustomed ways I still remember the talks by the water The proud sons and daughter That knew the knowledge of the land Spoke to me in sweet accustomed ways
I’m glad this thread got revived.
Here’s my avatar/anniversary coin/set completer...
Didn’t realize I don’t have a pic of the reverse right now. I’ll have to remedy that.
I’m still trying to figure out how to capture color through a slab with an iphone, I’m not quite there yet, the color is much more vibrant than the picture
I'm refreshing this Franklin thread that was started by @braddick There are some amazing coins in this thread! Are Franklins popular these days?
This is a series that I really love......Since I was a kid, and now I've acquired a handful of pieces. Post some of your recent coins.....Also looking for advice in collecting Franklins....Any tips?

You may want to reconsider. Gradeflation has made these plates obsolete.
