Thought this would be interesting to share as I try out using my laser pointer magnification for my iPhone camera...

I don't have a proper stand to hold the phone yet so some images might be a little bit blurry due to movement of snapping the photo... as well as no dedicated light source yet... but I'm surprised at just how close in I can get just using my phone camera...

Nice. Put it in a 2x2 before you lose the lam.

Nice clean example!

I agree, put it in a 2x2 before the peel gets lost.

Great find! I love when you still have the flap on the coin.

Nice retained LAM! These are HARD to find, they break-off 99% of the time.

It literally stuck to my gloved finger while sorting coins... glad I didn't accidentally rip it off pulling it free... for now I've got it in one of those plastic coin protectors cause 2x2's aren't handy yet... I think it flattened the flap a little...

It's interesting to see that underneath the flap looks a grayish in color while the hole it came from looks copper...
