I am all for anything punitive which could happen to Paypal, and quite pleased to see this decision, but doubt it'll have any real effect on...
The most actual optical magnification I've ever used on a coin (as opposed to monitor resolution "magnification," which if you read the fine print...
I disagree, sorta. You give me a $400 budget, and I will set you up with an equipment list capable of professional results from (literally)...
An iPhone is, in my personal experience, as good as any non-dSLR camera for shooting coins. They are easily the class of all smartphone cameras...
