    It's a Nikon L3. Really quite a surprise. I've pretty much settled on the D50 and will buy one soon but I just picked this up for $200 to take snapshots...I wanted something small. Once I get my lighting set up, I think these pics will improve.

    Thanks. I've always found it easier to photograph copper...especially toned or brown copper. I have to figure out a light setup to capture white, lustrous silver better.

    Nice shooting there!
    Nice looking coins as well!

    Shot in slabs? Raw? In 2x2s?

    I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment

    The IHC is an NGC MS64RB. It's pretty red for an RB though. The cool thing about this coin is it's in a second or third generation NGC slab, the type with no bar code and a gold NGC logo on the reverse.

    The Columbian is also in an NGC slab...MS63 but with great eye appeal and a pretty nice strike for a Columbian. I think the hits on the upper reverse limit it.

    The Lincoln is raw in my Dansco. I think it's an AU64. image
