My Mood:
Thanks ! I will be making a few changes thanks to this thread.

I do have one question regarding the following statement :

"One thing I would stress - it is very important that whatever type of lighting you use, that it be consistent. If you go to a show and buy coins under different lighting conditions than you are used to, you might receive a very unpleasant surprise when you get home and examine your coins! "

At shows, I have always used the dealer's lights. I have never felt uncomfortable; they seemed fine. They are usually incandescent, but sometimes halogen.

But that's not consistent !

It almost sounds like I need to bring my own lighting ! But that seems infeasible; I've never seen anyone else do that.

How can one have consistent lighting at shows ?

Thanks,

Ricky B
