Message:: [QUOTE="kanga, post: 902719, member: 9270"]I put together an axial lighting system.I know it works at best poorly with slabbed coins.So, for the time being, I'm going to use it only for my raw coins. Here are four images of a 1938 Jefferson Nickel.The two with the black background are the raw originals.The two with the white background have been:- close and circular cropped- reduced to 50%- slightly "photoshopped" (some contrast and brightness added) Please comment on both the "before" and "after" the results.Grading the coin is not important. <img src="http://www.dcderoo.com/5-1938-o.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> <img src="http://www.dcderoo.com/5-1938-r.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> <img src="http://www.dcderoo.com/5-1938-o-50.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> <img src="http://www.dcderoo.com/5-1938-r-50.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]
