Five weeks of playing around with lighting so far but I like the results.
1 500 watt halogen offset 12 inches away 5 inches high and angled down at 45 degrees Any closer and it melts the camera lens hood
Camera on a min tripod 3 degrees offset from the vertical 4 inches above subject.
Iso locked to 400

Feel free to grade this 1864 2 Cent coin.
Also feel free to add any tips to improve the pictures

I can't take pictures as good as this one so I can't suggest ways to improve it. I think this coin just misses the VF mark, so maybe an F15+.

Based on the wear on the WE I'm going to say F-12.
