Maybe I posted this one already? I got this about 3 years ago. Liked the cat and owl. [IMG]
The NGC photos show luster better than yours I think. I actually think they are more akin to how the coin would look in hand - especially gold...
Two or three semi-diffused overhead lights. I'm not trying to disparage the axial method - clearly you guys are getting super quality coin images...
Beautiful photo - very sharp and lovely design!! Once you have the focus mastered (which you clearly do), you can tweak the lighting as necessary...

The reverse alone is a 5 - extremely attractive and vibrant. The chattered up obverse is a 3. I'd go overall around a 3.7 overall because...
The 2nd set of photos is axial-like photography. These tokens are worth whatever people are willing to pay. The design is popular and the...
Here is my example. Photographed in 2 different lights. [IMG] [IMG]
