<p>[QUOTE="rmpsrpms, post: 1754914, member: 31773"]For toned coins, taking the pic straight on and then getting the light at as high an angle as possible (including axial) usually works. I find that 75-deg or higher is best to bring out the colors. Some folks build axial lighting setups and this is a good option for darker, deeply-toned coins or toned proofs. Your coin looks like it would image fine at 75-80deg.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
