Sunny, you can post them on a site like photobucket.com and then post a link in here to the picture if you would rather do it that way. Some people have a real problem wioth the size limits of the forum but its there because if there were no limits there would be allot of space used up just for pictures. If you would like me to upload some of your pictures you can email them to me and I will resize them for you and upload them in your post If you decide to post them to photobucket you can use these tags [img]Link to the picture on photobucket[/img] and the picture will show up in your post

For mirrors, your best bet is to set up a shot showing the coin reflecting something. It'll require a lot of light on the subject being reflected, and relatively little on the coin itself

Thats really hard to do, maybe its just beyond my camera's limitations

Thanks for the tip. I do think this looks much better.

I've been using those IKEA JANSJO lights for a while now and absolutely love them. I use them for both general desk lighting and photo illumination. They have a balanced spectrum and are easy to white balance. Here's a recent photo of a 57-D Lincoln Toner using two of the lights:
