Thanks. :) I think that would be useful for me, since my pictures are very crappy at the moment. Of course, it also doesn't help that I haven't...
And the award for best picture goes to: [ATTACH]...
Is it worth getting in addition to Goodman's book?
You know, I actually like the appearance of the impaired proof better than the more lustrous coin next to it in post #1. :)
I've heard that the book Numismatic Photography is very good. The author may be a member here; I don't remember for sure. Other than that, I'd...
Any thoughts on how to make money buying and selling coins other than buy low/sell high? Obviously, learn to grade, but what else? Specialize in...

I'm not sure if it's MS or not (I'm not experienced with gold, and the Indian series are just too hard for me to grade from photos), but melt on...
If, by "flippers," you mean people who buy up new stuff from the Mint so other people can't get it, and then sell at inflated prices well beyond...
There's no pic.... Oh, wait. :P [ATTACH]
Using cell phone screen protectors is one option. You can also find small baggies or plastic sleeves at craft stores that will protect your slabs...
