    Nice images of a difficult subject- clad coins.

    You've probably mentioned this before but do you use an "imaging box" to control the amount of light reaching your coins?

        Look for yourself , I'm not sure what you would call the mess that serves as my lighting !

        There has been some post processing of my shots. I put these together to show the original shots that went into each image .

          Well, they turn out great.

          Where is the coin placed when the images are taken? Below the bellows on the table top?

            In the pic there is a dime on top of the black wrapped shotgun shell I use separate the coin from the background for full coin shots.

              Ahhh, I see it now.
              That is quite the setup. Especially like the red copper wire stabilizing the "barrel", the light diffusers and the cup of Joe.

                Nice cud... Excellent images also... I like your set up... You really get some awesome images... Who would have thought a shotgun shell casing would have a dual purpose
