<p>[QUOTE="fretboard, post: 3115028, member: 19765"]In the case of your coin I would say the visual effect would not help, I would pay $33 but no more. Also if I saw a coin pictured with the visual effects, I would steer clear of it. Coin photography is an art all by itself so learning how to do it could only benefit your online sales in one way, if you used it honestly. The only way I would use it in my sales is if I used it on a problem free coin. It would be a freebie of sorts for the buyer, who doesn’t like a freebie, right? Here’s the only way I would be able to use it. I would grab my problem free coin, take a pic of the obv and reverse, good pics! Best pics possible! You want the pics you take to send a message to the prospective buyer. The message is this is a beautiful coin and you want to look at it, maybe even buy it!<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> Write an ad and pontificate as much as possible, after all there's a ton of competition on feebay, so it’s dog eat dog mentality. After, taking your best pics possible then you could add a little coin visual. You just say something like here’s an 1897 Barber Half Dollar in AU condition trying to dance it’s way into your collection. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> In my opinion, that’s the only way I would be able to use it. But I'm sure there's other ways. Oh to you and jtlee, much appreciation! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
