    I need help with better pic shots on the coins and less shadows sight. It makes it look like a MD instead of a double. Thoughts on apps or better camera or camera lens on phone anything will help.

    Your phone should be high enough above the coin to allow light to hit the subject evenly. 3 lights is ideal, 2, 6 and 10 o'clock, experiment with distance.

    He has found hundreds of doubled dies, have you not been following his threads?

    I recommend he get a Brownie Starmite II, that’s what I use. Use Kodak film, it’s the best.

    Don't forget to use a lens wipe now and then.... can't even guess how many hazy pics I've taken because of a smudge on my phone's camera lens :snaphappy:
