1. A 1893-CC Morgan. This is an upgrade to my Good one and probably as high as I'll be able to go. Got three more Morgan I want to upgrade, then...
Bottom line: Eliminate as much of the surrounding environment as possible. That means placing the item in a relatively air tight capsule, then in...
I orient the camera to the slab, not the coin. So if the coin is rotated in the slab, the image will be rotated. I override this if the rotation...
I align to the slab so if the coin is rotated within the slab, the image will be rotated. The exception occurs when the rotation is too much. "Too...
I've got Paint Shop Pro 7. In general I understand what you did. I'm not sure PSP7 can do the sort of editing that you did. But I'm a real...
I like this suggestion. I will incorporate it, especially after seeing the example by Jesh.
After a lot of testing and asking opinions, I think I've settled on the format for my coin images. This is for my coin image inventory and...
I'm pretty sure the 1943 Lincoln in MS-66 won't cost anywhere near $1000. I've got one and I believe it's worth about $40. Although I'm MORE than...
Oops, found one more. The OP already did the Capped Bust 1828 – 1837 Beaded Border. Here's the Capped Bust 1809 – 1828 Wide Border. It's the...
I'm just starting the process of re-imaging parts of my collection. Because of the number of images I'm posting, I am doing links instead. Some of...

It's been a blanket policy of mine not to accept such requests, not only here, but everywhere. But I've had several requests from in here; I...
Several comments. borgovan sort of alludes to it. Just because they are labeled "proof" doesn't mean they grade in the 60's. You have to worry...
My observation about eBay is that the sellers are not taking into account the current economic climate. Items are being priced the same as several...
With gold and platinum about the same at the moment, there's NO way you can make a profit. You won't be able to sell either at spot (except maybe...
One problem I've encountered is that the more a coin is enlarged by a high resolution image, the uglier it gets. Details that you don't see in the...
A combination of image inventory and show-and-tell. And one correction to my original post. The silver 3-cent is NOT the smallest coin I have....
Over the past several years I've gained experience in imaging coins and creating the screen presentation. This is the general look I want,...
The nice thing about a type set is that you can set your own definition of what "complete" is. One example: Some collectors will have only one...
