[QUOTE="USS656, post: 471048, member: 6641"]Give you that - I confused the issue a little :o what's new :) But - the mirror surface condition of the first coin versus the Quarter are much different. Every time I shoot one with a deep mirror finish I feel like I am left with a picture that doesn't really tell the complete story. The flat surfaces almost look black against the deep cameo. With the quarter the surface will show post mint conditions better as a result of (for lack of a better word) speckling that has developed on the surface. Like I said in my first post - for the 1st coin I think both help the viewer. For the qtr - the 2nd shot is fine and the 1st is too much light to be useful - IMO.[/QUOTE]
