[QUOTE="silvermonger, post: 1473586, member: 12490"]why not just ask the person who took the pics? before you bid? LOL For what its worth, with my cheapo point and shoot digital camera, I can vary the (apparent) toning color from blue to gold to brown to red by just changing the angle of the shot by about a 1/4" Thats under a single overhead to one side flouresent bulb. If the coins you looked at were all the same color its likely the seller had his camera firmly mounted (tripod?) so the light reflections affected the digital lens equally on all coins in that batch. The pics he took the day after probably look different. Its just different length lightwaves. Look around you, its a bright shiny world. this seller isnt the same guy who shows up at all the auctions you attend to undermine your bidding is it? then he doubles his money on ebay? just kidding! This is funny we were just talking last night about Vettes crappy pictures. FWIW, I have purchased dozens of coins from that particular seller and have never had a slightest problem. 9 out of 10 coins I bought from him are far better looking than his pics! Look at how many new listings he puts up every day, he does not have time to screw around with lighting taking that many pics. Its an assembly line. I bet you are very pleased when you get your coins.[/QUOTE]
