    Taking Pictures of Coins

    in Trackables

    Posted · Edited by 0R0B0RUS

    I use a Nikon 4300 in closeup mode and natural sunlight. The Nikon macro lens will allow you to get as close as 1.7 inches!

    Believe it or not, I just hold the coin out in front of the camera and shoot! No tripod. No lights.

    Geez Mike, once again you've done a helluva job here! Congrats!

     

    With regards to your above thoughts - no matter what you do some one is going to be mad...

    I also had to make a hard choice between BN or N, finally deciding to go with BN. I do want a nickel one, but isn't that what trading is all about? This way the buyer can choose which one of the set to trade. I see alot of extra work in allowing buyers to change orders now.

     

    Also, you could offer more colors in any combination and people would most certainly buy 'em all up (me included!)

     

    But, it looks like I'm just repeating what others are saying.

    Make no mistake, these are beautiful coins, mine are antique gold. But is it just me, or does anyone else have a problem with being able to read the letter inside the tiny window hole? :(

    Wrong Answer.

     

    The Copper Versions are going to be offered to registered customers at random in a drawing later in the week at the same price.

     

    Paula has the Black Nickel Versions and I have no idea what she has planned.

    Oh! I DO hope that I am one of those randomly drawn! The copper looks awesome! :(

    Someone Discovered one of my coins-- how

    Did they re-verify the number?

     

    I remember typing in the wrong number one time, not really paying attention to the coin name and logging that I discovered it. I agree that the person might have mis-typed the number and accidently logged the wrong coin.

     

    Give them an email and see what they say. It could be an honest mistake.

     

    I e-mailed them and they said "A friend gave it to me after the Midsouth Celebrate Summer geocaching event".
