the auction is for this gold half eagle,
linkscroll down to the main picture of the obverse.
Please enlarge the photo and examine the pixels.
Some areas appeared to have been smoothed out.
If this is the case, just tell me yes, so I can avoid this seller.
thanks.

david lawrence auction. same coin
same coin, same year, same mint.
but a picture from david lawrence's crew, which
looks unaltered to me.
Opera and other web browsers can magnify the picture.
To me the pics, I have used photoshop before, at the pixel level,
are modified.
david's are not.
look for areas where the pixels blur. concentrate on the lusterous areas.
notice a smoothing, where other places are pixels of the same size.
Maybe i am wrong, that is why i am asking for advice.
It will sell at a decent price because gold is on the up tick--but this coin is just a way to spend money and that's it.
