<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 4646830, member: 19463"]Remember this is the ancient section of Coin Talk. The putty does not compare what 99.9% of our ancient coins have been through in the past. I do not collect modern coins and have no interest in shooting coins that have surfaces that might be harmed by fingers, putty or washing. If you want to get advice on shooting proof silver dollars, post the question in the modern section where readers might actually have experience in this field. </p><p><br /></p><p>Today I watched a YouTube video on coin photography by a man who used flashes, a bubble level an had detailed instructions. His photos had a lot of glare from smooth, blank fields. He lives in a different world. TIF is an excellent photographer because she knows the only thing that really matters is pushing the button when you recognize a good photo when you look through the camera. If you don't see a photo you like, change something.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1148042[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
