Delist

Replace

Reason: The proposed replacement for the existing images of the 1933 $20 double eagle is higher resolution and, at full size, much sharper and detailed. On the obverse of this Saint-Gaudens double eagle, at Liberty's feet, is a black fiber that would not willingly be separated from the coin. I hope the increased detail mitigates this one flaw. Given that the proposed delist is actually two images, the layout is a bit awkward.

Comment - The contours of the current FP are a bit more prominent. They seem almost faded in the suggested replacement, at least at thumbnail size. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 00:22, 15 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- Understood, I just felt that the detail and ability to see texture and artistic work was significantly greater on the proposed replacement (not to mention the replacement is fairly sharp at 100%, where the original seems a bit lacking).--Godot13 (talk) 19:39, 15 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  - Indeed. What if you were to increase the clarity slider a tad? — Chris Woodrich (talk) 00:01, 16 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
    - Good suggestion. I will try that and (if it is an improvement) will upload a new version by late Monday...--Godot13 (talk) 03:17, 16 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
    - Chris- Change made, file overwritten, not too much change...-Godot13 (talk) 03:26, 17 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
      - Or just take another pic, from the half roll you have stashed somewhere. Vesuvius Dogg (talk)
        If Godot's got half rolls of this stashed somewhere, he's certainly not gonna say so. Doubt he wants the Secret Service after him. ;) (check out the article) — Chris Woodrich (talk) 16:37, 16 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Support - I guess the sharpness does outweigh the thumbnail appearance. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 09:22, 17 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
