[QUOTE="Detecto92, post: 1348608, member: 75105"]Proof coins are like a mirror. Like a mirror, it reflects everything in front of it IE: a camera. Anyway, my current set up is a light box, but it makes a lot of coins seem "dark". Can anyone help with making a good set up? Here is a proof, reflecting the camera. It's also dark. [IMG]http://i833.photobucket.com/albums/zz257/Phototaker_2010/IMG_0577.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i833.photobucket.com/albums/zz257/Phototaker_2010/IMG_0578-1.jpg[/IMG] Another proof. Dark, and reflects the camera. [IMG]http://i833.photobucket.com/albums/zz257/Phototaker_2010/IMG_0576-2.jpg[/IMG] A BU silver colored coin. Horrible. [IMG]http://i833.photobucket.com/albums/zz257/Phototaker_2010/IMG_0581-1.jpg[/IMG] A large copper coin in an air tite....terrible. [IMG]http://i833.photobucket.com/albums/zz257/Phototaker_2010/IMG_0582-1.jpg[/IMG] 1832 CBH, horrible contrast. [IMG]http://i833.photobucket.com/albums/zz257/Phototaker_2010/IMG_0585.jpg[/IMG] This is how nice the coin looks under a usb microscrope.
