Thread for altered images of coins

I post this “photoshopped” image of a W cent—a friend did it for my old avatar.
If you remember, I bought a shiny Morgan on eBay, and you guys convinced me that I had set myself up for disappointment because of the work done on the image —I asked the seller to cancel.
If you have examples of a coin whose image has been altered, post it for:
teaching purposes
art
suggestions to the mint
humor?
questions about an image
Thanks for reading.

Here’s some ones that can be considered coin art. I like to make these when I’m bored, it’s like playing a video game to me

Brown shoe polish look.

I see a lot of those, but I avert my eyes the same way as I do when I see something that I would be ashamed of being seen looking at.
Edit: I forgot this thread as fast as every one else did.
I hope this counts. I base the drawings off of real photographs that I personally take and use the resulting images for the album covers.

Do you think it would fool anyone? That HAS to be a mint error.

Not sure that this would be considered an altered image: This is a picture from an auction, but it looks like a watercolor.
Maybe the seller used an old flip-phone.
Just remember...the advice you receive on the site is worth every bit of what you paid for it.
Beautiful! You should try that with other toned coins as well. Great screensaver or something!
