<p>[QUOTE=&quot;bqcoins, post: 2016614, member: 5036&quot;]Coin looks AU to me and I am also a bust half guy. I bet the toning is nicer in hand. Josh managed to wash it out two different ways with artificial and natural light so it is darn difficult to tell if the old dipping damaged the coin in any way or if the toning is uneven or unattractive....just no way. But the meat is there on the coin pointing to an AU grade. </p><p>Josh...you want to sell more coins, either get a better camera set up or take better pictures. I recommend getting a copy stand, a tensor or gooseneck lamps, semi-decent camera, and a square of plexiglass or plastic the same size as the copy stand. Then read up on lighting angles and how to use axial lighting to highlight your coins. The difference in how the coins looks could end up like this. </p><p>good lighting, bad angles, wrong camera settings</p><p><img src="http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff71/bqcoins/Quarters/IMG_2575.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p>same lighting, axial angles, different camera settings, same coin. </p><p><img src="http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff71/bqcoins/Refraction%20Experiment/112_zps9236d1df.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
