<p>[QUOTE="chicken man, post: 2359708, member: 77447"]I tried this with an Ike. My Nikon coolpix S510 on a tripod about 8" from coin. 3 second delay with a clip light (60w incandescent bulb) and an LED flashlight. The first pic is straight from the camera. The second I took most of the color out and cropped it. I use my Mac with the Photos program to make adjustments. I am looking for "grade type" photos. How do they look? Yes...I see the finger prints! Shame, shame! Anyway, should I bother to take the color out (If it is not a toned coin) and crop, or leave it alone. Thanks.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]481177[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]481178[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
