Thanks Joesph. I will give that a try. It would be interesting to see what the results would be if I adjusted the levels then selecting the background.

Maybe I should have said novice.

It does not matter the equipment, if you do not have the skills. Practice and patience will hopefully pay off some day.

Hmmm, I hope you didn’t mask/select the dimes and then eraser the white! From the looks of the shadow edge, that is what you did.
Try a simple Level Adjustment layer on the original image if that isn’t how you got the result – you might be pleasantly surprised!
