You need to redo your lighting setup.
What you want is for the lighting to be close to even across the whole coin.
That's generally means the light source should be as directly straight down as possible without putting a hot spot on the image.

Try tipping the bottom part of the coin upward to get the light to flow across the entire surface of the coin. You might try a ramp to get the light angled a little bit.

This is a 2X2 with a piece of cardboard in the open side taped tight. Covered with dark material and it helps get the light into your glass better.

This is how I use it.
