I will check it under a loupe when I get back home tonight. I have not noticed it in hand, if that helps. I will also look at the field between...
This is not an expensive coin, but my purchases are limited. First are the GSC photos, then mine. I cannot prove that all coins are accurately...
My setup is too crude to move the lights without having the camera body get in the way. Plus the lights would fall off the desk. In this one...
Here is a companion, also using 5 frames. I adjusted my algorithm permanently to account for the number of images. The movement in one direction...
I rebuilt the animation using exactly the same photos as in post #45, above. The sequence is 1-2-3-4-5-5-4-3-2-1, repeated. If we allow one second...
These are exactly the ideas I was playing with in my mind. I will give them a try soon and see what I can do with 5 frames. When I use two frames,...
This is another attempt to recreate luster. First, I took five photos of the obverse and five of the reverse. I kept the coin at the same tilt...
I have posted many photos on this site, and I am thrilled when any of you appreciate my humble efforts. I just marvel at what you do. My thanks...

That is exactly what I thought when I saw it! We could have some sunset coins... [ATTACH]
About 4 inches. Try using a roll of toilet paper as a tripod. Just lay the iPhone on top of the roll with the lens stuck out over the edge. If you...
This makes perfect sense. By holding the relationship between the coin, its holder, and the camera constant, the scratches never move relative to...
My animations with just two frames were intentionally meant to be a lower bound, a starting point that is easy to achieve. More is better, but...
Animation and Coin Photography I have received some questions about the animated images I have been posting. [ATTACH] An animated photo uses...
I am just a bit suspicious that this might be nicer than ANACS says it is. I'm enjoying the coin, and allowing myself to think it's better than...
