<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 2510393, member: 19463&quot;]When your coin is black, you really end up photographing the glare reflected from its surface rather than the surface itself.&nbsp; You can claim to be more purist than the rest of us and show us a black blob claiming your coin is really that black. No, you just have not put enough light on it to see the relief detail.&nbsp; This coin is black.&nbsp; Would a better picture just be a black rectangle of a black circle on a white rectangle?&nbsp; You are welcome to that opinion.&nbsp; I prefer to see the coin.&nbsp; The lighter parts are where the glossy surfaces threw light toward the camera while the darker parts are where the light was thrown elsewhere.&nbsp; </p><p>[ATTACH=full]533845[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
