<p>[QUOTE=&quot;krispy, post: 1391847, member: 19065&quot;]I&#039;ll say that I don&#039;t think it&#039;s over used, just more common and that&#039;s not a bad thing, as it&#039;s a very nice or elegant and even professional way to present one&#039;s coins. The problem as you pointed out is the &#039;pearls for swine&#039; cases, when a common coin that&#039;s not particularly shot in a dynamic or even clear manner is dropped into this sort of layout. One that&#039;s not rate taking the &#039;spot light&#039;. The same if a cruddy coin of no special merit nor value is plunked into a fine dressing like this, then it becomes a different case. But to each their own, as much of the love of coins is in the eye of the beholder. I get your point though.</p><p><br /></p><p>The one thing still images no matter how well presented show us is the luster, for that we need video or animated image files. Heritage sometimes uses them for super high end coins and I have seen one person on CT in the past run a test for animated .gif files to show a coins color and luster. Only problem is CT doesn&#039;t allow animated .gifs (to my knowledge, anymore) and redirecting someone to another site for such things probably wouldn&#039;t be very popular. Not to mention, it takes a lot more work to set up and edit a file to show a individual coin being animated and whatnot.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
