[QUOTE="WingedLiberty, post: 1166373, member: 26030"]I just got this coin in the mail today and I wanted to post a photo I took with my iPhone vs. the sellers photo. Certainly the seller's photo was a lot more colorful, but I still like the coin in hand. It's possible I don't know how to best photograph a toned coin. The photo I took was in indirect sunlight next to a big window (no artificial light at all). I might need to really ramp up the lighting to get better colors!

(note that I made the composite image using Abobe Photoshop) [ATTACH]121223.vB[/ATTACH] All in all I still like the coin and decided to keep it.
