Selling on eBay

They tell you to take plenty of photographs of what you are selling.  I find a lot to be lacking in many photos I see posted on that site.

So I got out my best camera and took some photos of a Proof set I'm thinking of selling.

Well, I find out that taking pictures of coins is completely different than photographing houses.  I tried different settings on my camera, different light setting, different backgrounds.  Very hard to really get excellent pictures of something up close.

Then I got a thought, why not SCAN the coins in my printer/scanner?

Below are the results of my experiment.  Please tell me which you think is better, A or B

A is above,  B is below.

Kenneth - I am going with A as well... the individual features of each coin are so clear in it vs option B.  Nice post.
