A grouping of new type coins

[zrlevin]

Hi All,

 

It has been a while since I added a new coin to my type set, so I decided to remedy that!

 

This one arrived from James last week, and has actually proven to be a difficult coin to image, because it is so dark (yet indisputably original).

 

 

These three arrived in the mail today from PCGS board member Don Soles (InYHWHWeTrust).

 

The Washington is a replacement, and matches my 1930 SLQ exactly.

Zach, nice job imaging that 1838! Looks spot on to me.

 

My image wasn't so great:

James, what kind of lighting do you use? I seem to be having trouble illuminating the coin properly.

Very nice coins and the images look good as well. Congratulations.

James, what kind of lighting do you use? I seem to be having trouble illuminating the coin properly.

I virtually always use the SOLB method (single overhead light bulb). I switch out different wattages when necessary, but usually, a 75 watt bulb works.

 

That being said, I still like your image better.

James, Given that you can control exposure by varying the shutter speed, in what case is a different watt bulb necessary?

 

Just wondering...Mike

 

p.s. Zach, you are patiently amassing quite an impressive type set! Keep up the good work & congrats!

Very impressive indeed! See, one doesn't have to be well heeled to create a nice set. Eye-appeal is key over grade and over price!
