Title
Classical Coins offers ancient coins - Greek, Roman, Byzantine and Persian.
Description
Lighting is fully controlled, unlike scans, and is arranged to convey the most accurate impression of the preservation and surface condition of each coin. Since this highlights minor surface flaws, coins often look somewhat better in the hand than their images.
Appearance of these images, like photographs, does not precisely reproduce the appearance of coins viewed under normal room lighting. Silver and gold coins normally look very much like their digital images, but bronze coins usually have relatively dark patinas . T o show fine detail, their images must be very brightly illuminated and often appear somewhat lighter than the actual coins.
Color of these images may be slightly different than that apparent to your eye, because the spectral sensitivity of the imaging system is not identical to your retina, and apparent colors often change with the level of illumination.
