<p>[QUOTE="WingedLiberty, post: 1566930, member: 26030"]<b>Six views of a 1909 PCGS PR64RB Matte Proof Lincoln. </b> As an experiment, I had 6 PCGS TrueViews shot of a single coin at various lighting and viewing angles, just to see how the look and color changes under different conditions. This is a good example of how a single photo does not tell the whole tale of a coin. It's interesting that in shot #1 (top) it's difficult to see the detail of the coin, then with other lighting and viewing angles the detail (as well as the color) pop. The detail of the coin probably becomes the most visible in shot #4. It's also interesting how when more of the obverse gloss is shown in shot #6, some of the obverse detail starts to decline again. </p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://mindstar.com/cointalk_photos/1909_1.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="https://mindstar.com/cointalk_photos/1909_2.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /><img src="https://mindstar.com/cointalk_photos/1909_3.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /><img src="https://mindstar.com/cointalk_photos/1909_4.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /><img src="https://mindstar.com/cointalk_photos/1909_5.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /><img src="https://mindstar.com/cointalk_photos/1909_6.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
