*grade added* Finally playing with the camera again....guess the grade? A coin even RICKO could lo

I haven't really done any coin pictures for quite awhile as the desk got cluttered and life got really busy.
I am getting ready to do a few things (such as maybe a crossover submission), so I wanted to take some coin shots again. Many of them of coins I have bought since not taking pics.
So, I will be posting some pics. They aren't the best and I am not doing anything other than cropping and converting to jpg (there may be a pic or two that, due to toning, I had to shine direct light on, so I may try to get rid of the glare, but I will not that....it isn't done with the pics in this post though).
Again, no editing other than cropping and just a quick job at that, sorry.
That said, let me know what you think and feel free to give a grade if you want.
Same coin, different lighting"

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

Feedback on the pictures. I like the layout. Both sets of photos could probably benefit from a bit of a lighting adjustment though. The first set has too much contrast and the second set has too little. Also, it could be my eyes, but I believe the focus could be a bit sharper. Some edges seem blurry to me and other areas lack a depth of field. Now as I read my words, you'd think I was some kind of pro photographer or something. I'm far from it heh. Thanks again for sharing your pictures and coin! Allowed me to sit here a while and wonder what life was like in 1885.

At least no one has said "XF", then I would really worry about my photography

Then, you should go to some of the SAE threads...I think there are a few 25th annv ones laying around the forum you can visit
