    I use my digital camera and set the settings to macro. This allows you to focus up to about an inch away from something. The macro setting on my camera has a flower for it's logo. Hope this helps.

    A couple more basics are

    On macro the camera must be completely still. If you don't
    have a tripod brace it on a table or something.

    Don't use the flash. Play with different lightings for different coins.
