[QUOTE="Clawcoins, post: 3174476, member: 77814"]maybe some help .... 1 - go to a well lit area. The brighter the light the faster the "shutter" speed of the camera which minimized motion blur. 2 - put the coin on a FLAT surface (not your hand). And take pics of both sides, and full coin pics too 3 - If you can, use a box or something to put the cellphone on and point the camera lens Directly DOWN to the coin (not at an angle). 4 - Make sure the cell phone if FAR Enough AWAY from the coin so that it can focus on it. And make sure it does focus on the coin rather than the background. If the cell phone is to close the images will be fuzzy. 5 - make sure you crop the image (get rid of the dead space) before posting it. 6 - don't be in a hurry. It usually requires you to redo images .. we'll probably ask to redo images that we cannot see details of. So might as well do it right the first time and take your time. If you cannot see details in the images, neither can we. Also try to put dark coins (copper, etc) on a white surface (even plain white paper) and bright coins (clad, nickel, silver, etc) on a black surface (like black paper).[/QUOTE]
