Hurry, Gotta show you something!!!

Yeah @shilines I saved your third picture, opened it in PhotoScape and just cropped it. Check that program out. BTW, that damage looks like someone using an engraving pen on too slow a speed.

Or if you don't want to pay for photoshop, GIMP2 is a great free photo editing program. Here is a picture of a coin that I took with my phone and edited in GIMP2:

 

That's very

That's very cool and all because I do the same thing. I love photo editing. But when it comes to my coin searching and coin collecting hobby there is no time for editing. Whatever I post will always be the actual coin in hand or else I would post it. I can see how it could be done though.

 

I have Gimp-fear

 

This is the coin in hand. I took the pictures with my iphone6 and then cropped them with GIMP2. After I cropped them I pasted it into MSPaint and did the black paint thing. Boom. Done. Maybe less than 5 minutes total. Makes for a much better presentation IMHO. Also, work on non-blurry photos. Look before you post. You should be able to see for yourself how blurry/crappy your photos are before posting and fix that. If you want help, you should provide the best possible pictures you can.

 

Don't worry, it's not the one from Pulp Fiction

 

@shilines Emphasis on the second optional word.

Yes, you should be able to check the pictures *yourself* before posting.
Do not be in a hurry. Think of the extra time you *had* to spend, and all the extra postings everyone else *had* to do.

If you take your time, do it right the first time I think you yourself will notice that it was not a DD. Your new pics, the 3rd was obvious what it was and what it wasn't.
