<p>[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 1045755, member: 112"]As I've said before, no magic is necessary to get decent scans of coins that show both luster and color. All ya need is one simple trick of the trade. Place something about 1/4 inch thick under one edge of the coin, then close the lid and scan away. Just make sure to scan at a minimum of 600 dpi. If you have a decent scanner you'll get good pics. And no massaging or picture editing is necessary other than cropping the image.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
