cpm9ball Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 Maybe it's the pics but are the fields hazed? I like DMPL's!!!!!! Nope, no haze, very mirrored. I took several dozen pics trying to get the reflection illustrated well but failed miserably . That's the best I could do. If there is some trick to getting the camera to focus on the reflection and not the coin itself I couldn't figure it out. The coin is a 62DMPL. It's hard to capture in the plastic.

Cladiator Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 I think the trick is to get the camera to focus on the test in the mirrors of the coin instead of the text on the paper the coin is sitting on. When I can figure that out it'll make for killer pics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeKing Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 WOW. Seeing these dmpls that Cladiator (I just effin love that '83) and Mike put up is making me want to find one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cpm9ball Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 (edited) I think the trick is to get the camera to focus on the test in the mirrors of the coin instead of the text on the paper the coin is sitting on. When I can figure that out it'll make for killer pics. I take the pic from about a 30 degree angle above the coin which is held in a vertical position. Try using black or red print on a white background. The red background seems to mask the definition.

leeg Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 Nice mirrors!! Picked this one up from the PO today. Nothing fantastic or anything, POP 4/1, and for $49 it's ok to fill a slot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeInFL Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 Very pretty, Shane! Love the late 50's toners -- a combination of gorgeous color and yet affordable! Congrats...Mike p.s. nice coins PB & Elbesaar! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cpm9ball Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 Those are nice, Shane! You are fortunate that they didn't get mixed up. Back in the 50's, it was not unusual for a hospital to give a "baby" to the wrong parents. Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elbesaar Posted November 21, 2007 Share Posted November 21, 2007 Found this beauty on eBay. The seller declined my offer a month ago, but the other day I noticed noone had bid on this beautiful coin. I upped my old offer by $60 and the seller accepted it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robec1347 Posted November 21, 2007 Share Posted November 21, 2007 Thanks Tom. That is the only DCam of the new bunch. I don't know what prevented this from Dcaming, but NGC did give it a 69 Cam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bsshog40 Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 Nice collection going there Shane. I like that Frankie too Bob. Usually the Rev is what keeps them from going Dcam. Looks like the E Pluribus and the Eagle didn't quite go Dcam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
