<p>[QUOTE="Lehigh96, post: 4597416, member: 15309"]In fairness, 15 years ago, their photos were really bad. They have gotten much better over the years, but I think their stock setup for their slab shots uses extreme diffused lighting. The result is over lit surfaces that are very easy to evaluate but subdued luster across the board. The “beauty shots” for toned coins and high value items I think are contracted out. I know Todd Pollack was doing them for a while, and recently they have been using PCGS TruViews.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
