Sometimes imaging through "slabs" is maddening!!!!!!

Two views of the same proof florin, that is ( the obverse is "under construction" image )


Cameo Highlights

image


or, Colour Highlights

image


So, I know I'm supposed to be sticking with Business Strikes, but hey, how can you blame me. Besides, it's the 1893 PF Crown's fault. image

    Maybe if you could superimpose them and work that image magic some of the folks here have, then you'd have it!

    It's a beauty either way you look at it. Photographing the obverse of the a proof like that is a challenge.

    A proof like that can change even the most hardened business strike collector.

    I've got more work on my plate than combined hands on my team, unfortunately. Fortunately, I do get internet access image

    Sorry, HD crashed, plus that obverse design does not lend itself to easy imaging for the proof version.

    Anyone here buy that one? Got a deal since it's really a DCAM! image
