<p>[QUOTE="Paul M., post: 2417161, member: 73165"]There was a guy years ago on eBay who was selling (I think) mostly Buffalo nickels and took the most beautiful photos of them. He gave the typical line about not being a coin grader and how they came from an old safe in an estate sale or something, so I avoided them. Estate sale guy actually beat GSC in terms of pretty pictures, but you could never judge luster from them. I've since learned more about photography to know that he probably used axial lighting, which hides a lot of imperfections. GSC is probably doing the same thing.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
