Found my first lamination error! It may be considered a 'common error,' but I'm tickled. I also found my first rainbow nickel. Both were found during roll searching. Sorry the pics aren't any better, but my camera was made in 512 B.C. with 2.1 megapixel.

This site has good pointers and examples. http://www.tabletopstudio.com/documents/coin_photography.htm The picture below is with a point and shoot on a tripod with a super macro function - not with the methods described in that link. This photo is yellow because it was shot under a regular incandescent. Sorry no obverse.
Nickel that was photographed for the Coin World article and the Coin World Article Laminated Would this be considered a plate coin Terry
