    A little bit of practice on exposure and aperture and I think you'll have it nailed

    Most auto modes will pick a spot to focus on and shoot, where you may focus at random on any given high or low spot - probably not even centered. if you shoot manual and set up your focus point and manually focus,. then you 'll get sharp

    I know what you mean, it took me a couple of takes to get some lustre to show on my threepence, but I was only messing with it inbetween working, so haven't really explored best lighting etc yet. Mainly I got it because getting the DSLR out is just annoying for coins.

    I gave in. Microscope USB cam - £35 quid from Amazon.

    I bet your jewellery projects are probably worth nearer his price tag than that piece of shit..
  8. Unwilling Numismatist
    I totally agree!

    Many were silver dipped as currency became worth less, so it's probably a good match to be honest

    As soon as they're seen they either get "collected" or ebayed, either way they ain't going back into circulation.

    A word play on another thread, but who's bought what after a little too much juice? I have to own up to 3 collections of rang, 2 charity shop piles and a few Royal mint sets worth far less than face. Did you do ok in the end? Mine are a waiting game but so far I'm a little ahead thankfully!
  12. Unwilling Numismatist
    the local rumour mill suggests that they are appearing, but so far very few have been seen.

    I gave in and bought A to Z too. Just need 3 £2 coins to complete those now as a distraction to collecting Vicky silvr...and bronze. Not sure how it happened. Silver was my happy place til I came here and now everything costs me so much more lol.

    I don't mind the looking, it's having something to look at is the problem, I think I'm all out of unidentified penies at the moment.
  19. Unwilling Numismatist
    Shows I'm definitely switching sides slowly but surely
  20. Unwilling Numismatist
    Well done Richard, it was a damn good read!
  21. Unwilling Numismatist
    If ebay had a "like" button on that listing, I would use it lol
  22. Unwilling Numismatist
    I got 4, so it must be 1 per gallon

    As I understand it, very limited numbers for use by Mr May himself on the tours. I believe some were given away to lucky members of the crowd and a few sold. This appears to be the rarest of all of the tour "sixpence" picks.
  24. Unwilling Numismatist
    I think that seems to be a direct hit Worthless but +1 on the knowledge front for me, thank you!
