Ive noticed a lot of people are talking about shooting coin pics and the proper lighting to use.....I personally like to shoot them in the daylight because at twilight and evening their a little to hard to see!

Also,Noone seems to talk about what they use to shoot them,though...I personally like the .22 because it doesn't obliterate the pic like,say a .357 does....But,if I'm feeling particularly mean that day,The .357 serves its purpose!!If ya know what I mean!

Kinda depends. I've found that smaller calibers are appropriate for copper and smaller silver, but one must raise the stakes when confronted with Silver Dollars and the like. And, nothing less than a Magnum round is appropriate for Ikes and Susan B's. But, that's only a personal opinion.

Noe! I want something that will 'get the job done, and no after=effects! I prefer the .50 cal, armor-piercing, with an explosive load! No use "horseing around"!
