[QUOTE="Clawcoins, post: 8456469, member: 77814"]try white or black paper. Those bright colors can create color casting (colored light reflects off of the paper on to the coin giving it a slight hue especially if the auto white balance of the device isn't so good) which will obscure the true color of your coin. FYI, the lighting and focus on the blue postit one is far better than the other two. The other two you can see it slightly out of focus. One can see on the blue how the light is more even/ balanced across the entire coin whereas the other two you see unbalanced lighting making it easy to think you see something that is not there. [ATTACH=full]1498598[/ATTACH] Many times on harsh light it will reflect off the edges making one think it's a double die in that area. With harsh lighting you can see the edge of the head and back is obscured by the bright reflection [ATTACH=full]1498596[/ATTACH] and with harsh lighting one can think they see doubling, when all it is the light reflection on a few close surfaces. That's why ppl rotate coins around so much as the harsh lighting is deceiving one. An image with balanced (diffused) lighting really only needs one straight on image to see everything.
