    I'd give them a solid B. Especially since the first ones are Proofs in slabs image

    It is hard to take a picture of a proof coin without getting reflections. Some people think that Proofs come out better with diffuse light. Do you know about the lampshade trick? It involves putting the coin under a lampshade and taking the picture through the top of the shade with any light coming from the sides through the shade. I'm just a beginner at photography, but I think my proofs come out acceptable, even with my cheap camera. Here is an example.

    Keep at it, old timer. You'll get it soon!

    Proofs are tough - the lens has a habit of showing up. You might take a shot off center to see if that helps.

    Don, That is some of your best so far, slabs and proofs are the hardest to capture, and can be fustrating..... image
