I am always fighting with my little digital scope to obtain decent pictures. Either the cameras software is "making up stuff" to fill in pixels or the LED light source causes reflections that make it impossible to objectively look at. Ive read up using the "SEARCH" function here (novel idea by the way lol) on the various threads concerning photography. One of them spoke about diffused light. How I get around that is if I have a really important picture to take, I try to go somewhere in the house where there is natural sunlight and most the time it helps. However, at night, I have not a single incandescent bulb anymore in this house. I tried something strange. I cut a piece of an old cottn t-shirt and stuffed it into my scope to cover the LEDS...but still let light through. I think it worked pretty good! Look how nice it made my IKE pop! You can really see the doubling on this bad boy now. Its like a completely different coin by just adjusting the type of light. If you are having trouble getting pictures without glare, be creative! It will help the experts help you quicker and easier.
I have a stupid question now. Will a "die clash" always show in the same spots? It could be just pariodoilamollabolla or whatever its called but looking at this coin now through a different light, this kind of popped out and now Im curious. Im thinking 99% its not a die clash but I would like opinions. The below sure does look like a star from the other side of this coin. I cant see how its possible with how I understand a clash happens.
Thank you guys! Just curious and wanted to rule out. Im sending this to Wexler soon for the doubling so wish me luck! First coin for me to do that with.
