• Neutral I like the image and it is high quality, but I would find it much more fitting in an encyclopedia if none of the coins were cut off, though it is a small portion in this image, I would rather see each completely. --WillMak050389 04:52, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
• oppose - the compositing was done very clumsily. Some of the drop shadows are cut off, the shadows weren't masked for transparency above the other coins, simply cut off of a light background, and there are huge artifacts in some of the shadows - which seems strange considering the coins themselves are pretty good looking.

• Oppose per Debivort. Making a composite of overlapping images is not as simple as cut and paste. The obvious layers shown by shadows suddenly cut off along a straight line make this look very unprofessional. J Are you green? 05:41, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
• Oppose per Debivort. Loses enc because coins cover one another. --Janke | Talk 06:08, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
• Oppose unfortunately, per the above. It wasn't put together properly. --Phoenix (talk) 07:16, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
• Oppose very poorly done composite image. --Pharaoh Hound (talk) (The Game) 11:55, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
• Oppose Per all above.--HereToHelp 14:05, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
• Weak support - Rowing against the flood... I like the composition and technical quality is quite good. Showing the whole coins is not necessary IMO. Alvesgaspar 17:36, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Oppose - Opposers are right, quality is not good enough - Alvesgaspar 01:17, 6 May 2007 (UTC)
• Strong Support This is excellent! Neutral slightly leaning towards support That close-up changed my mind! ♠Tom@sBat 18:57, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
• Comment people seem not to be noticing what seem like blatant flaws to me. Here is a blow up. I should have also added that the shadows have different hues for some reason too. Debivort 19:14, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
