@Paulus, really wonderful pics of some really wonderful coins.  That crown especially is drool worthy!  Stunning!

Paulus, you should consider offering a photo service. You could make a pretty penny, excuse the pun.

Super pictures - what is your final configuration of camera, lights etc ?

[Paulus 1,942]

Thanks all for your kind comments on my pics - I have spent countless hours, and doubtless many more to come! My current (if not yet final) configuration has has some very minor tweaks, which seem to make one neck of a difference! I will post details shortly.

This Maundy set accompanies (and matches) the crown - sixpence proof set set I bought and posted about - they are a bugger to get good pics of

Yes, I'm obsessed, I know! New camera from Coinery, and I think my best yet pics of the difficult-to-capture 1902 matt proof crown

Paulus, your photos are great. 

It just emphasises the importance of having the right lens and lighting. I can take okay photos with a good camera, a normal lens and flash. But your photos show that so much more can be done with a good macro lens and the right lights.

Thanks Jaggy, it means a hell of a lot that others on here rate my efforts!

I have some way to go to get to BRG standards but steadily getting there I think!

The 1902 matt proof half crown, really pleased with the Rev of this one:
