Been playing around with my camera a bit trying to take a decent picture. Let me know if pictures should be bigger or smaller if possible. Comments on the pic would be appreciated, and if you can throw in a grade maybe also then that's would be super :)

Looks great! I would say MS63-64? Not an expert of grading Morgans, but marks on her face and on the front would bring it down?

Excellent shot. I'd call the coin 62 or 63. One possible adjustment you might make in the picture is to try it a little darker - don't change anything else except to either shorten the exposure, reduce the ISO or tighten the aperture. The idea will be to help bring out details in the right-side fields, which are kinda bright in your original. Of course, the risk is the loss of left-side detail; that's a tradeoff you'll have to decide for yourself.

The current pics are of a perfect size and gradable quality; if you could improve them, it wouldn't be by much.
