Finally, my first gold coin

Photo Tips for Coins: The closer the light-source, the better a (smartphone) camera will take pics it appears. Well-lit close-by light will make the lens focus on the coin details and it won't need to stay open as long and thus blur the coin's details if the light source is further away (my 1st pics were 6 feet from the light source; the 2nd pics were about 1 foot).

A Green Banker's Light seems to do a good job when the coins are angled like on a plate or coin plastic holder. My LHDE and SG from FUN 2026 came out much better when I used my desk Green Banker light and the coins angled at about 60-70 degrees in those 2-pronged plastic plate/coin holders.
