Picked this up on the Stack's auction. Arrived today and I am very excited about it. This coin is very challenging for me to image given the coloring and the reflective nature of the reverse which seems to be prooflikr. I will try again once I figure this out.
Hieronymus von Colloredo-Waldsee (1772-86).
DAV-1263; KM-435.
Robed bust right; Reverse: Crowned arms.
Beautifully toned and a superb gem. NGC MS-65.

I just did an automatic color adjustment, brightened the levels adjustment, sharpened by 15% and there you have it. Took all of 30 seconds.
This software allows you to take far less time taking the photo too because post processing is faster than trying to adjust and take multiple images. Just make sure to do no adjustments until you have the image trimmed otherwise your bacground influences the adjustment too much.
For $75 you get a powerfull hunk of software.

Judging from cacheman's quick photoshop improvements, I assume that in hand, it must be stunning.
