There was a great way described here few years ago how to make good photographs of coins. Is there a link to that thread?

Thank you for the link. Very useful advices, but the one I remembered was posted here and described a light absorbing flash reflection method like how to make a photo through a 2 litre milk plastic container with the bottom cut out.
Anyone remember that?

I've tried the milk container method without any success. Can't remember where I got the idea from though. May have been CCF, but may have been anywhere on the net. Memory is cactus!
