Animation going from straight-on to pseudo-axial. Some new Xmas presents (lens and tilters, not the coin...)
That is a gorgeous nickel. I see lots of color even in your "lousy" photo. Maybe you should get it professionally photographed? Several members here do really good work.
I am thinking about doing that with several of my coins. But I think this one would respond particularly well.
Great coin, and great example of how the same coin can look completely different in a different photo. I prefer yours, BTW.
