Post Your Slab Shots

PhilLynott · July 1, 2019 2:42PM

Slab shots are underrated in my opinion as they can show a bit more of the actual life of a coin sometimes. I know I've clicked the buy button because of a nice slab shot before. I was listing some stuff for sale last night and while the camera was set up took a few slab shots of some type coins. I know my white balance is a bit off I'm far from an expert photographer so would love to see some quality slab shots in the thread so post what you got!

Here are a few of mine:

I like slab shots because it helps judge a coins true color against the lighting of the plastic and insert.

I absolutely agree that slab shots show more life. I think most of the time that is the case. They give a great idea of luster.

Whenever I do list coins on the 'bay, I usually make a quick snap of the obverse of the slab (I believe it is in their rules) to go along with the professional images I have done of the coin itself.

After a quick glimpse of my coin image folder I found a couple of post-worthy images (IMO).

Cherry-picked 1853/4 25C

I like how bright luster pops out on these oghs
Not expensive or rare, but I love it just the same.

This one, picked up today at the po box. I Really like the Hallmark slabs
