This is excellent! A very early example of this style. Made even cooler because it ties in with the statue at the Pitti Palace (shown in the OP)...
Nice coins @ambr0zie . Thanks for sharing! Nice coins @Andres2 . Wonderful coin SA! This type of portrait is closer to what I had in mind...
This thread is going to be a double header... literally! I have quietly and somewhat unintentionally (until recently) been building up a...
Dust in the Wind by Kansas :D;) Great coin @David Atherton . CT provenances are always a plus!
@DonnaML , your Canopic jar coin is truly wonderful. One of these is HIGH on my want list going forward. Until then I’ll have to make due with the...
I’ve seen you post your set up before and I think it looks nice. I like the idea of using a wood camera holder to reduce vibration and suspending...
As best I can tell they are the same coin but photographed at slightly different angles which I think is accounting for some of the uncertainty....
I use a 12” wide x 6” tall background at 300ppi and then place the photos side by side. This means I usually have to reduce the size of larger...
Excellent coins @Cucumbor (both of them!). I also won a coin from the @tenbobbit Collection in AMCC 2. It is a very neat coin that is really...

The last time I talked to SA he said it should be up sometime in January. That was last year so I don’t know if that has changed or not. These...
Thanks @robinjojo . Really nice silver wash on that coin. These big folles are always so nice in hand! Thank you Fugio1. I think I might add...
Thank you my friend. Indeed it was. :oops: Though when one only adds 5 coins in 12 months, one must play with the toys he has. :borg::bear::D...
Okay, that makes sense now why I couldn’t find your coins in the sale. I don’t know if most people feel the same way but I always appreciate when...
I’m curious Al, did CNG note these as from your collection? I looked at the auction before it closed and didn’t see anything noted as “Al Kowsky”...
Say what!? :eek::rolleyes: Now I’m interested. Could you share a link to the discussion on this? Thanks for the kind words as well! Nice coin...
With AMCC 3 just around the corner (hopefully?) I thought I would take the opportunity to post a coin I won in AMCC 2 back in 2019. I always like...
Great thread @Ryro . Here are a few of mine that I consider to be nice portraits. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]...
I agree with desire not to have hands in the video. Even though it provides scale and allows control it seems to me at least to be a bit...
