Hi homesale87, and welcome to the CCF! As for pictures, you can't "free hand" them. Place your phone on something such as a small box or stack of books about 6" high and set the photo type to "square". Place the coin under the cameral and zoom in until the coin just about fills the screen. Experiment with that method for a while and see how it works.
