Since new years is boring for me today I have decided to take some updated shots of coins that really needed updates. I know they're still not doug quality but compared to the ones these replaced, its a dramatic difference. All taken with my phone with a new mickey moused lightbox setup. Silver isnt going over so well but bronze/billon is working out well. Also can anyone tell me what the mint is for the fallen horsemen if it can be attributed?
All of you new photos look great and gallery is really looking nice! Its like like NA in the ex. idk if its ANA or MNA(or delta) . I think its Antioch or Nicomedia
Check your PM chris & thanks Randy, maybe get more confirmation from doug or someone, it was $10 almost 2 years ago but I like it despite some off centering. I would like to redo almost all the photos eventually, will take time of course.
I believe it is ANdelta = Antioch partly from the letters and partly from the shield shape and what looks to be a stirrup rope but I'm far from sure. I have been reshooting some coins and also am doing better with bronzes. I guess it is a 2012 thing to do? Yours seem to suffer from more light at the top than the bottom so I'd suggest changing light angle and see if that can be improved.
I have a few where my crappier photo still shows more detail the new one, and I have a few I still dont know if I even wana try to photograph.
