[QUOTE="Clawcoins, post: 8403743, member: 77814"]It looks like you are putting the coin On a Bottle Cap, which is ON a bottle? [ATTACH=full]1490895[/ATTACH] just put the coin on copy paper or construction paper which does *not* have texture. A bottle cap is also fine but you don't want it raised up high, or as mentioned above, goes beyond the edge of the coin itself. BUT Then place your cell phone on the top of a kleenex box on it's side (or something that raises the cell phone *ABOVE* the coin. You want it High enough to focus on the coin, not anything else. If it's too close it won't focus. You should be able to tap on the screen for it to have a focus point on the coin. Then take a picture. a bit more .... Now with light, without enough light the "shutter speed" is slow which means it keeps the shutter open for longer periods of time to accommodate the amount of light with the amount of exposure. If the camera isn't still then you get motion/blurry images. So more light the better, but that light is best if it's reflected towards the coin and not directed towards it.[/QUOTE]
