How a weak accumulator can produce gold coins
« on: May 12, 2010, 06:38:08 pm »
Hello,

when i tried to make pictures of a SS denarius my camera created this new aureus type:



198-200 AD., Septimius Severus, Rome mint, Denarius, RIC 138. - wrong illumination / light filter.


The cause: an accumulator near 0 charge level so the illumination was messed up.



The correct pictures:




But don´t use this trick to flood the fleebay with fake gold coins!  ;)

Wow nice aureus!  You could post on eBay.  I’m confident that you’ll get a lot of bidding action.  ;D
