<p>[QUOTE="sonlarson, post: 757813, member: 15488"]Both sides of the coin are the same. The reverse photo shows the truer color. The reason the obverse color is off is because of the light colored paper in the flip. I was able to bent the flip back against a darker background to take the reverse photo. I have found that if I take a photo of a dark coin with a dark background and a bright coin against a light background, I get truer color. Entire coin is same color. I am not looking for investment grade coins. I am trying to fill out my type set with the best I can afford within my budget. Thanks for all your help, I learn something every time I ask a question.
