<p>[QUOTE=&quot;krispy, post: 1132815, member: 19065&quot;]Scanners do an excellent job of showing off all the problems a coin may have in the worst possible light. Plus they are good for general shots, as stated. Since all the surfaces are not flat against the scan bed, the focus of the scan is not going to get everything in focus. Most coins in coin slabs or 2x2 holders tend to suffer from reflections and soft focus. The harsh lighting also causes inaccurate color representation and is difficult to depict true surfaces... and you can forget about picking up luster. Even a cheap digital camera with basic macro settings can net better coin pics if the above aspects are what you need to avoid or capture in images.</p><p><br /></p><p>Scanners are a must for note collectors. High resolution scans of fine engraving work are really nice for studying details on notes up close.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
