Hopefully these photos are a bit better Walter

much better!!! well done!!

wwwww

Yes that gives a better idea but the first sixpence photos were ok anyway, I was referring to the florin and earlier photos.

Just one tip though, photograph the coins straight down, when you have an angle the perfect lighting angle becomes difficult to calculate and it's difficult to get the whole coin in focus.

What grade would you estimate Walter?
