Suriname 5 cent KM# 12.1b [solved]

4 posts • viewed 81 times
Hello!
I recently got a coin in topics name (2017) and it is bronze/coppery color like it should be since the metal is copper plated steel. On the coin page however (https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces6047.html) the pictures show a coin which looks silverish in color (stainless steel or copper-nickel).
My question is..is it a wrong picture on a coin page (it probably is not but color looks off) and shoud it be updated for more realistic look? Should someone contact the referee or is there something I am missing?

Have a nice day!!
I think it's just the lighting but if you think you have a better picture submit it and it probably gets used.

​I will probably update it by myself but I can do that in a couple of months since my father cannot deliver the coin to me very soon.
It's definitely the lighting. When you copy the pictures from the coin page, paste them in a photo editing program and adapt the lighting you'll see the pictures turn a lot more to the right colour. So it's definitely the right picture. The pictures are sharp but unfortunately the upper part is overexposed.
