Kennedy 50 Cent Coin, NextEngine Scan

pinshape

This is a U.S. Kennedy half dollar scan, captured with a NextEngine scanner at the highest resolution, to showcase its impressive capabilities. I've been battling issues with the included software, which tends to fuse and simplify files (they become jumbled), so I've imported them into Meshlab for final touches and waterproofing. Two files are included: The raw scan from NextEngine One that has undergone Poisson surface reconstruction, then decimated to approximately 150,000 faces. You can see the relief pattern at an oblique angle, making it possible to read the year, but I'm uncertain if it's sufficient for a good print. I'm sharing these files in case anyone wants to experiment with them and achieve a higher post-processing resolution. I also have a liberty dollar posted here: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1631346 Please leave comments if you do, and consider posting a photo of your printed version!
