Sorry about some of the poor quality pictures. I took them all with my camera phone.

You can improve the quality of your photos even with your camera phone. Get far enough away so it can focus. Put the coins straight. Then crop out everything but the coin. Also take the coins out the the holder if it is easy to do. A few came out clear.

Nice coins, by the way

Thanks Bababooey. I usually don't do too bad with my phone, I guess I was just in a bit of a rush lol. But I did just get macro filters for my dSLR, so I'll probably be using that from now on.


Thanks everyone!

Thanks, he's collected them over the years.

I got a macro filter for my dslr camera, so I should be able to take better pictures from now on
