Nicely taken, Donell!
This brings back many memories!
I really like the monotone treatment and lighting used here!
Well done!

Thank you! The lighting was a fluke as I tried different ways to shoot this coin. This was natural light. I don’t even think I could duplicate the condition :-)

Excellent B/W with good details.
Donell Trostrud replied

Thanks so much! I actually didn’t desaturate this at all. The lighting and white balance used produced this in camera.
