I'm pleased with how this turned out. It took me forever to figure out how to get the reflection in Photoscape. Camera is a sony a6000 with a Nikon 75mm f4 englarging lens and extension tubes. Used two jansjo lights at 10 and 2 o'clock, and a cheapo tripod. Aperture 5.6, shutter speed 1/80, ISO 100.

Photos are good enough, when they can be used for coin diagnostics. That is the case here.
Rest in Peace

Thanks to all. The photography experts on this forum are amazing. I knew nothing about cameras just a few months ago.
