Let's see your newest acquisitions!

I've had this for awhile. Was NGC PF66, now PCGS PR67.

Thnx bud, it's definitely been a work in progress and still is.

I use a pretty simple setup. Single lamp, and a tripod. the only thing I use for editing is PhotoScape (probably one of the quickest and easier programs to use) and its simply for cropping the coin.

 

Incredible coin and beautiful toning!! WOW! Even as a non-Jeffersonn aficionado, I love it.

 

What kind of Camara are you using?

 

Sony cyber shot hx20. 18.2meg-pix. Still considered a compact, and it doesn't break the bank.

 

What kind of light bulb are you using? Sorry about all the questions.

 

Still trying to get the most out of my camera, but I'm happy with this coin.

 

Nice coin. Details slab or graded? Looks like it had a bath a while ago, but a nice example of the series.

 

Thanks!
It was graded. I also believe it may have been dipped at some point. Still, it received a XF45 by NGC.

 

Yeah, I was going to say AU 50. Close!! Definitely a keeper--most of those that are that clean were dipped, but the coin didn't suffer, as it has great eye appeal.

 

What exactly is your comment supposed to mean?

Btw, nice Ike:thumb:

 

I got this for the type set. Not quite an AU, just what the budget would currently allow.

 

Another wild purple nickel. Simply stunning!

 

How could you not be happy with a lovely coin like that.

 

Just a single CFL diffused lighting most of the time on the lamp. I take the photos on the dining table (much to wife's dismay) and the room is lit by Incandescent lighting overhead. I can show you a photo of the setup if you like later this afternoon.

2012 MS-70 Buffalo

I posted this coin raw a few weeks ago. I sent it out to PCGS and it came back. I was very excited to see that they graded it MS-70!!!

 

Another one I bought a few months ago. Cracked out from a PCGS SMS SP67 slab and resubmitted. Just came back SP68.

 

That there is my idea of a gold coin! Congratulations on the 70!

 

Thanks!!! :thumb:
