rmpsrpms Pillar of the Community United States 4038 Posts	Posted 09/11/2011 7:43 pm I posted this to the modern variety forum and to the coin photography forum as well since I thought it might be fun to discuss these higher mag photos and techniques.

rmpsrpms Pillar of the Community United States 4038 Posts	Posted 09/12/2011 12:00 am Thanks...the MonoZoom7 does a good job. These are all single images, no focus stacking. The high magnification images would look even better if I took them out of the 2x2's and stacked 3-5 images. The low mag ones would benefit from a 2-stack. Maybe I'll do that on one of the coins just to make the point...Ray Contact me for photographic equipment or visit my home page at: http://macrocoins.com Report this Post to the Staff
rmpsrpms Pillar of the Community United States 4038 Posts	Posted 09/17/2011 4:06 pm Here's a focus-stacked image of the 1946-S RPM for comparison. This was taken with a 5X microscope objective instead of the MZ7, and using a Nikon DSLR instead of the Tucsen. I don't know how to do better than this...Ray Contact me for photographic equipment or visit my home page at: http://macrocoins.com Report this Post to the Staff

rmpsrpms Pillar of the Community United States 4038 Posts	Posted 09/18/2011 12:26 pm I scoured coppercoins website again and identified the 1946-S/S as RPM #30. Not sure why I missed it before, the markers are all there! Contact me for photographic equipment or visit my home page at: http://macrocoins.com Report this Post to the Staff
