Here's the new Nickel, a 1934P I picked up Sat at San Jose coin show. Imaged with the 75ARD1:

And here's a high-mag image (~6X) using a (presumably Kyocera/Tominon) E36C 60mm lens with the help of a Vivitar 2X Macro Converter:

And finally, here's an image of my trusty 57-D Lincoln Toner, imaged with a cute little Minolta E-Rokkor 75mm f4.5 I just got in the mail. This lens falls somewhere in the middle of my pack of 75mm lenses:

Great images Ray (and beautiful Buffalo!) Just wondering, is that close-up of the date a single image? Or stacked? If it's a single, I'm just curious what your f setting was stopped down to for that. The DOF looks very nice.

It was a 2-image stack. First image focused on high points of the devices, second focused on the field. The E36C lens I used has a fixed aperture of ~f5.6...Ray
