<p>[QUOTE=&quot;nesvt, post: 781880, member: 1749&quot;]This is in regards to this <a href="http://www.cointalk.com/t74877/" class="internalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.cointalk.com/t74877/">thread</a>.</p><p>Some folks were asking for before and after pictures when using acetone on uncirculated Morgan dollars.</p><p>Haven&#039;t had time to go through a process and photograph a new coin.&nbsp; Also found out I need a macro lens to get a decent image with my camera.</p><p>Ended up taking some quick scans of the slabbed coins, used the same scanner, and tried to match the size to the &quot;before&quot; scans.</p><p>Not sure if it&#039;s going to be a good comparison.&nbsp; Slabbed coins seem out of focus. Can&#039;t remember the exact contrast and brightness settings I used on the earlier scans.</p><p>With all that said.... here are some images of four of my favorites from the group.</p><p><br /></p><p>1878-P Reverse of 78</p><p>BEFORE</p><p><img src="http://users.gmavt.net/nesvt/20091014_1878P_7TF_OBV.JPG" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://users.gmavt.net/nesvt/20091014_1878P_7TF_REV.JPG" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>AFTER</p><p><img src="http://users.gmavt.net/nesvt/20100108_1878P_7TF_OBV.JPG" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://users.gmavt.net/nesvt/20100108_1878P_7TF_REV.JPG" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>1880-O</p><p>BEFORE</p><p><img src="http://users.gmavt.net/nesvt/20091014_1880O_OBV.JPG" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://users.gmavt.net/nesvt/20091014_1880O_REV.JPG" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>AFTER</p><p><img src="http://users.gmavt.net/nesvt/20100108_1880O_OBV.JPG" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://users.gmavt.net/nesvt/20100108_1880O_REV.JPG" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>1881-P</p><p>BEFORE</p><p><img src="http://users.gmavt.net/nesvt/20091014_1881P_OBV.JPG" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://users.gmavt.net/nesvt/20091014_1881P_REV.JPG" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>AFTER</p><p><img src="http://users.gmavt.net/nesvt/20100108_1881P_OBV.JPG" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://users.gmavt.net/nesvt/20100108_1881P_REV.JPG" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>1881-CC</p><p>BEFORE</p><p><img src="http://users.gmavt.net/nesvt/20091014_1881CC_OBV.JPG" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://users.gmavt.net/nesvt/20091014_1881CC_REV.JPG" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>AFTER</p><p><img src="http://users.gmavt.net/nesvt/20100108_1881CC_OBV.JPG" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://users.gmavt.net/nesvt/20100108_1881CC_REV.JPG" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>How did they grade?</p><p><img src="http://users.gmavt.net/nesvt/20100108_SLABS.JPG" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
