Looking pretty nice! 
IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: " It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

hfjacinto, how did you take the photographs of the Morgan dollars in their 2x2? What setup do you use?

I line up the coins on a grey terry cloth (car buffing towel) and then I crop and edit in my phone. I do a light processing (adjusting color and exposure). Save the picture and upload using medium compression to here. Nothing like the other pictures in that I take RAW images using a DSLR and then process them and then resize for here.

How about the light source and angle of the light?

No light source other than the sun, I place the coins on my desk (with a southern facing window) and then work with the blinds to get light that looks good to me. You have to remember that I've been a photographer as long as I've been a coin collector. Both come easy to me.
