I'll take some tomorrow. I took those tonight, with just a 60W desk lamp. Camera was having a problem focusing too.
Rest in Peace

Here are a couple I took today in natural light. They are focused much better, too. Looks like it could use a good soak in some acetone...

I've gotta say, it's one of the best struck Mercury's I've seen in my somewhat limited coin collecting history.
