[QUOTE="IdesOfMarch01, post: 3153325, member: 39084"]I had posted these two pictures in a previous thread ([url]https://www.cointalk.com/threads/hadrian-aureus-a-makeover.284246/[/url]) but it seemed appropriate to post at least the pictures again in this thread. The top picture is Heritage's, taken when the coin was in a slab, and for some reason elongated in the vertical direction. The true color and brightness were lost. The bottom picture is mine, after it was freed from the slab, and accurately illustrates the coin's color. Heritage did a disservice to this coin by settling for the picture it used, to my advantage since I got a great coin for less-than-market price.
