Perhaps you might consider posting several photos of the same coin, using different settings, and asking us which photo shows the best detail. As for this photo, it seems a bit too bright and perhaps needing a contrast adjustment. Really nice quality though. Report this Post to the Staff

Try moving your lights off axis so there's no direct reflections. Let the light come in from the northwest. Other may suggest some sort of diffusing setup. Report this Post to the Staff

You might have to change the lighting or reduce the exposure (resulting in a dark photo, but avoiding burned-out areas), then brighten it up afterwards in Photoshop (or whatever you use).
