Either lens should be fine, the Nikon is my preference for clarity, but the Tamron zoom should work, too.
Unless you have a tripod, you'll need one, and a place to shoot your coins.
The camera is a good one, you don't need another. Get some photo software to load, unload, and crop.
Use side angle lighting, and correct temperature for lights. And a paper diffuser you make at home. You can get an LED/LCD bulb at a hardware store. |

Sounds as if it was never shipped. Regardless, the vendor bears all responsibility for packing, mailing, and signature delivery. Press for an immediate refund in full. Begin with eBay. Don't return packaging just yet, then comes Paypal and USPS. Check your claim timing for all to be sure you don't miss a window.
102 Positive feedbacks means there only one person is involved, the vendor. |

Of course it's rare, only one note has that number. Condition is what matters, not the number. Your number is in the millions, not under 1,000, and thusly not a premium note. Take it to a coin shop and sell it for what you can get, and call it good. You'll not earn more than a pound for it. |

I decided recently on German notgeld as a collecting interest, very pleased with that choice. The Danish material is a corollary, as we seem to have come from the area where some wars were fought between Germany and Denmark over sovereign status, and plebescites following the Great War.
Just walked right buy the Austrian, it wasn't interesting, to me. If you don't like it, don't collect it. |

For the record, most Austrian notgeld is not really very attractive and is worth less than any other country, especially Germany. Exceptions exist, but the general rule is there. |

Nice collection and a good start ! Than 10 Rupee note with King George V is a bit valuable, keep it in the holder. And do get polyethylene holders for the others, it protects them from further damage when handled.
5x8 holders are the best size. |
