<p>[QUOTE="The Penny Lady®, post: 981679, member: 16948"]Wow, first of all this thread was started almost a year ago, but it's sure nice to see the pretty coins again! And Mike, I have several customer (and me) who will definitely agree with you - there are some beautiful coins in MS65 BN!</p><p> </p><p>To answer some of your questions. my photographer Todd at <a href="http://www.bluccphotos.com" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.bluccphotos.com" rel="nofollow">www.bluccphotos.com</a> does an amazing job of capturing the color and toning of coins through the slabs, and it's partly due to the lighting, but mostly due to his skills. I do know there are ways to remove the scratches from holders and as a temporary fix in order to take more clear photos, you can apply a little bit of oil to the slab which helps temporarily remove the appearance of the scratch when photographing.</p><p> </p><p>Eagle Eye Photo Seal was created by Rick Snow (and Brian Wagner) years ago and is for Flying Eagle and Indian Cents only. Rick is the guy who writes all the books on Indian cents, and his seal is sort of a pre-curser to what CAC does now. It means that he believes that coin is at least properly graded if not better for the assigned grade, and he only does this to NGC and PCGS graded coins. He also has a buy-back on Photo Sealed coins. He applies the very hard to remove eagle sticker and also takes a photograph of the front of the slab, signs and laminates it, and you keep it with the coin. This does add a slight premium to coins - it just means that they are more typically quality coins. It doesn't mean that every Flying Eagle or Indian cent that is NOT Photo Sealed isn't quality, because not everyone is sent to him (it costs $15 to do this by the way). </p><p> </p><p>Any way, hope this helps.
