Wade, what do you use to raise up the coin? I'll give that a try. Nice photos by the way!

I balance the coins on a small plastic dowel. I suppose you could use just about anything though.

Hkjai, not sure if you are referring to me or the last poster. But, I've been using a 100mm Marco lens (also with a canon dSLR). I can get the exact details if you wish, as there are few different ones. It's a lot about the lighting, setting and making sure the camera is still too.

I just took some snaps of the same coin with different lighting angles.
I looks like 4 different coins .
