I bought a set off ebay for about $6. Three AAA batteries I had the idea to try them for coin pics. Tell me what you think. The wire "conduits" aren't that strong. They won't stay in place, so I had to support them with a deck of cards. Note how you can place the lights right over the coin. A little straightening and cropping, and voila!

Lobby Pillar of the Community United States 548 Posts	Posted 01/03/2012 5:35 pm Yep. I love those Mexican silver pesos. Unfortunately, I sell them rather rapidly. That 1945 is a personal one, not a particularly rare year. A gift from my Dad, so it's staying in the safe. Report this Post to the Staff
