<p>[QUOTE="NPCoin, post: 4573046, member: 5629"]I did not read more than the first few posts of this thread as it seemed to be Mr. Toad's Wild Ride. But, I'm glad you found at least some use out of it all. I personally prefer black...I just like black. But, for toned coins, I have found that the colored backgrounds help to bring out specific colors in the toning and just make them jump out more. Again, that's just me...others may disagree.</p><p><br /></p><p>For your posted coin, I prefer a background like this one (I took the liberty to simply fill the background on your original photo):</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1132277[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>I simply eye-dropped a color that I liked in the toning and lightened it. To my eyes, this enhances the color of the toning while still allowing the eyes to see the coin without the shadows nor the brilliance overbearing the details.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>

For your posted coin, I prefer a background like this one (I took the liberty to simply fill the background on your original photo): [ATTACH=full]1132277[/ATTACH] I simply eye-dropped a color that I liked in the toning and lightened it.
