In Memory of Glamour Shots

Glamour Shots. I wanted a new screen saver and so I put this one up a couple days ago. Others were too bright or distracting but this one I find pleasing to look at and almost calming as you follow the flow lines while absorbing the different colors.
You'll need a darker Resolution and blow it up to full size.
Side note: This one came from an original roll I won on the Bay and then tripled up on the sell for the only MS67 in that roll.
Post your most pleasing TrueViews.

Would I break the thread guidelines if I posted a GreatPhoto
Click bait. You got me.
Glad she's dead.
Of course GreatPhotos are welcome! I forgot that's like a reincarnation.
Click bait in the worst way!🙄🎣🎣🎣
It isn't clickbait it is actually true and besides were you expecting somebody?
Of course it's clickbait, regardless of your opinion about "Glamor Shots". All you had to do was include those two words in your thread title, to make the identical point. But that might not have resulted in as many views, hence "clickbait".

Awe the voice of reason. Will make the change now.
Just to be clear I'm not interested in clicks this is a non paying job.

Thank you for clarifying.
Now! back to those wonderful images...
It was clickbait. I thought someone died. That was ridiculous. Now that you agreed to change the title good luck with your thread.
If this had been the original title I never would have posted any comment as I have no interest in your topic.
Thank you!
This thread was not intentionally meant to be "Clickbait" nor to bash True Views in case you were wondering.
Honestly, my intention is to see and honor and relish and remember something that most all of us will dearly miss.
So I do apologize for any inconveniences.
Time to fish or "click" cut bait.😀

That one just looks expensive. Very nice indeed.
Phil’s team even made worthless coins look good, trust me I know. Got boxes!
Pretty coins y'all. (Except for you @Creg ... yours is heinous.)
I am a newer collector (started April 2020), and I primarily focus on U.S. Half Cents and Type Coins. Early copper is my favorite.
Yeah, the rim damage at 5-6 o’clock ruins it.
Your cert #s cannot start with 5 unless a proof.
I know what your tryin I ain't gonna do it I wouldn't show those to my ex-wife.

Why doesn’t PCGS state the grade on the photos?
You got those TPS reports ready yet.
Connected True View images of certified mated pair into one image.
This is a CAC MS62 but it is the one coin I keep just admiring.
That's today's Trueview! - bringing out the ugly in nice coins. And accentuating the ugly in ugly coins.
That’s a great looking coin! I love that luster, it’s almost like a satiny, almost proof-like look…

@asheland Did you know that your 1866 IHC has a MPD? in the denticles between the two sixes..
When I first bought it, I did not know, but I posted it here and I think it was a day later, it was pointed out to me.
I found that very intriguing and later on, sent it to Rick Snow and it got an eagle eye photo seal and he attributed S1 on the certificate. It’s one of my all-time favorite Indian head cents.

Nice seeing these TrueViews from way back. I, of course, now only shoot slabbed coins now which has an enormous set of challenges. I’ve adapted, but I do miss taking shots like this easily:
Keep a look out for my interview in the March issue of The Numismatist!

I was more afraid I would’ve elicited a strike from the ban hammer than the legend himself. Thanks for stopping by and yes, I sure do miss those images.
I’ll be looking for that March issue and any clues you may throw out at that time.
By dumb luck, I submitted a handful of my best coins for reholder and TV right before @PhilArnold left. They are just incredible pictures and I'm happy to have them. These are the best of the submission but they are all great.
