levelsofmadnes Pillar of the Community United States 3003 Posts	Posted 05/30/2019 4:03 pm There are 3 DDRs that look similar. I believe this to be the WDDR-008. Side note working new picture technique where I place piece of glass between the scope and the coin at an angle. Then shooting light at the glass bouncing some of the light to the coin. Looks like I need to do better at focusing. Report this Post to the Staff

levelsofmadnes Pillar of the Community United States 3003 Posts	Posted 05/30/2019 5:01 pm Thanks Errers and Varietys. Also using this method for taking pictures, disburses the light over the whole coin evenly. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 05/30/2019 7:19 pm I use a lot less light for micro images: On that that helps is the ramp (dark blue device in the image) it is made with a 2X2 with a piece if cardboard on one edge to make it tilt. Also under it now I use a square tube top off a half dollar roll. (It gets the coins higher up next to the scope and keeps from scratching the paint off the scope. I changed it over to 12 volt instead of 6V and I use a 14 watt bulb: I have use that setup for many years. (16?) Before I had a single barrell scope and used the light in the first images without the upgrade of power and a bulb that lasts for years, rather than weeks. Report this Post to the Staff
