<p>[QUOTE=&quot;altaycoins, post: 3109985, member: 16466&quot;]Can a coin be photogenic?</p><p><br /></p><p>I think it can. I have coins which looks great at hand but looks terrible when it is photographed or vice versa.</p><p><br /></p><p>The following coin I acquired recently was a tricky one to photograph. I tried so hard but couldn&#039;t manage to get it beautiful toning right. Second image shows how it really looks. In this example the toning layer at the surface was very thin apparently so that only at a certain angle it shines.</p><p><br /></p><p>Ilkhans, Abu Sa&#039;id, AE&nbsp; Fals, Tabriz, 726 AH.
