Yes. @Conder101 even wrote a book on the subject. The book was quite a few years ago, though, and I'm not sure how often he updates his files.
Wow, that is a huge amount of money for a coin like that with such bad pictures! I think whoever receives that is going to find an AU-58 coin...
I'm not sure if you've checked your camera is perfectly perpendicular to the coin. I literally have a level that I bring out to make sure my...
