that is actually where these things stand out from the rest, their macro capability is amazing. You can put the lens almost against the coin and it focus to a clear shot

I will go down to WB and click the over button
Bryan,
What exactly are you referring to by the "over button"?

I've been watching this forum in amazement. I can't believe how such an old camera (by digital technology standards) can take such detailed close-up shots. If anyone has a few of these that they'd like to list on ebay, I think everyone reading this forum would greatly appreciate it.

when I say over button I know its confusing because it confused sidekick also, I just click the over button on the directional kep pad (square that has arrows on it) and then it will just have WB showing and then you just put a white piece of paper under the light you will be ising infront of the lens and hold the EXE until the green light stops flashing. Sorry for confusing you

You will not be able to flip them for profit after paying the cost of getting them slabbed; break-even in a PCGS slab would be about AU55 and I don't believe either of them will reach that plateau, much less the higher grade required for profit. 1928's aren't all that uncommon. Kinda like 1909S-VDB's, they're a "commodity" item which has a lot of turnover due to demand.

Happy to report (for her sake) that my co-worker received payment of $600.00 for the two 1928 Peace dollars yesterday.

I should have been clear that the $600.00 came from the coin shop that had made the verbal offers last week, not me:)

As a newbie am looking to improve my coin photography. So far with my Canon S50 it has been pretty dismal. I have a long way to go to match the above coin photos! So, have been trying in the UK for a JVC QX3 or 5, but with no success, seems it's a rare bird in the UK. However, on ebay UK was successful in my £30 bid for a Canon SD630 6MP, 3" screen macro, focus 3-50cm. It seemed a reasonable price for what was on offer. I am hoping it will fit the bill! Don't know what they cost new, but guess it's a few years old. I need to get a small table tripod and a cable release and then it's going to be quite interesting! Will keep you advised!
