<p>[QUOTE=&quot;krispy, post: 2353666, member: 19065&quot;]I disagree it&#039;s pushing the limits or juiced or artificial. But that&#039;s not to say it doesn&#039;t go on. With this one though, only that there&#039;s too much caution or imagination being applied. If you bid and get it, and are not happy when it arrives, return it. But also take pics one way or the other and post them to this thread for us to compare and discuss.</p><p><br /></p><p>From my take on this, from these low resolution seller photos, it does not appear juiced. It&#039;s evenly lit and an in-focus shot, though with unmistakable glare from the lamps on the holder making the shots very flat and contrast-y. What I suspect you would likely see in hand would be a more vivid range of colors from warm reddish-violet in the truncation across to blue/blue-violet and a touch of greener turquoise nearer one to two o&#039;clock. There is also a noticeable white area totally without toned around two o&#039;clock and if you take the image and bump up the contrast to eliminate the glare, you see the higher points of the devices and legends are white(r) than the flats of the colorfully toned fields. I suspect the richer areas of colorful tone are actually more on their way to the black end of the spectrum of such toning, and that this coin continues to progress in that direction. At some point, who knows how soon or long, it will become too dark to please the toner-market. That&#039;s likely to happen to many toners and where caution should be applied considering how much one pays for color.</p><p><br /></p><p>With the coin isolated from the background, The seller&#039;s pic untouched (l), with contrast bumped up (r):</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i776.photobucket.com/albums/yy46/kcttck/Misc/Compare_MorganBlueMS66_zpspwhwblgj.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
