Indeed that would also be correct. I have posted before how to take pics of proofs with a camera without getting your reflection in the image and instead have a black colour. You can have a colour reflection of your choice really.
It is quite a simple solution. (apologies for the blurry pictures, I have a nerve disorder and shake a lot)
How to remove this reflection
get a piece of black card larger than the width and length of the camera face (in my case a Samsung Galaxy zoom phone), the card has to be jet black as that is the only true colour that does not reflect light.
fold it in half and cut a tiny semi circle out of the centre so it leaves a small hole about 1-2cm when you unfold the card.
Hold the card flat against the camera lens and take the shot directly above, make sure no colour from the camera (in my case, hide the silver colour) is visible looking through the hole, only the lens itself should be visible through the hole.
(viewfinder will look like you are looking through a telescope/microscope), now you will have a perfect proof shot with no visible reflection. (camera held about 6 inches above coins)
now all you have to do is crop out the coin. B)
