[QUOTE="lordmarcovan, post: 4896959, member: 10461"]I have no pretensions of being a great coin photographer. Right now I’d settle for “adequate”. Here are two sets of cellphone pix of the same coin, shot in the same place under similar conditions (i.e., natural light, outdoors, on an cloudy day). The “crusty” toning on this coin makes it a slightly challenging subject. I do think the new pix are clearly better than the old, though how much of that is attributable to the phone and how much to the fact that the light might have just been a tad better for the new photos is debatable.
