Here's another thread on the subject. https://www.cointalk.com/threads/animation-and-coin-photography.297411/
Anyway, now that we've cleared up the topic of how a coin could be perceived with different angles of light in still photos, let's get on to the...
That coin is gorgeous.
Yes! Another perfect example. What a difference!
I agree but! It greatly depends on the angle of the light also. Note the black field of the first image, indicating a mirror like finish. This is...
I would like to find one of them double obverses/reverses. I would never lose a bet. :)
Sure it does. That may have been the last coin that die hit before it completely failed. There may also be a matching coin out there or a whole...

Multiple photos with different angels would be Ideal. I see little of that. A small GIF. file could show luster and cartwheel better. One of the...
Heres an MS63 O , Maybe you can get ball park, but it's not worth guessing with pictures. Maybe your question should be is it worth getting...
Again, I've done a quick search with no hits on this topic. I apologize if this has been discussed. So how do you present your coin photos in the...
