[QUOTE="tonedcoins, post: 1104676, member: 25155"]O M G! You are something else Leadfoot. EyeEatWheaties, I think that like you learned about the Heritage coin that you rephotographed, not all images are the same. And even if you look at an image with your eyes, the coin is never the same 100% in hand. A still photo is nothing like grading it in hand while tilting and looking to see if it has a cartwheel effect/full luster or hidden damages. And by over grading, what good is that doing to your collection? I too like to look at large images but not prefer grading with my trusty little glass eye piece :) As for you having shaky hands and too much hair on your hands/arms well that's too funny and a different topic I guess. ;) I would like to know what you use to take your images and make such huge pictures tho so I can use them for my personal collection and study the change of toning with time a little better if you don't mind. PM me here if you would share your secret.[/QUOTE]
