Send them to me that would be an improvement.
Very nice!
Try taking a pic of one coin and frame it centered. Get as close as the camera will focus. Use the Macro or flower mode and try different angles with lighting and maybe use a paper or milk colored plastic to mute the glare.

I'm not a very big fan of LMC's but those are some really nice coins!

Also, is that 1962 in the bottom row a proof?

Actually the 68-S could be a proof - probably is, judging by the picture provided. It certainly is not an SMS coin.

The mint restarted the Proof coin minting in 1968 after the 3 year break from '65-67.
