[QUOTE="Eduard, post: 3207047, member: 8959"]A grade question for you guys, and a query about taking good pictures. I was taking new pictures of this 1814 JR-5 bust dime and noticed that regardless of the lighting conditions, it was just impossible to bring out the true colours with straight-on photos. Some of you guys are really good at this, judging from your pictures, so maybe you can give me a few pointers. Besides my camera, I have no special set-up. No matter what, the straight-on pictures show dark splotches around the perimeter, when in reality the coin shows nice blue/green/gold iridescense when viewed with the naked eye. I can only bring this out when I shoot the pics at an angle. Thanks for your grade opinions, and any tips on the color issue.
