<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Al Kowsky, post: 3565391, member: 97383&quot;]ro1974, Photographing bronze coins to get accurate color can be difficult, however, the color seen in my photograph is what the coin looks like in natural diffused sunlight, not artificial light. For comparison see my photos of the coin after being slabbed. The slabbed photos have more direct sunlight on them or they would look unnaturally too dark, especially the reverse side of the slab. The auction house I bought this coin from used photo editing to lighten the coin giving it a much lighter brown color, not what the coin really looks like. Many auction houses &amp; dealers do this to bring out more detail in a photo or make it easier on the eye.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]948371[/ATTACH] </p><p>[ATTACH=full]948373[/ATTACH] </p><p>[ATTACH=full]948375[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
