    Looks like you're off to a great start. The trickiest thing with that scope is controlling the glare from the top light, there's no room to get alternate light sources in there. Keep praticing and posting the results.

    I got to take mine out of the box one of this days, after buying it for more than a year.

    Great pics. Sean- you sure can get other light sources in there, just try holding a light close to the front, or side, of the viewing plateimage
    Some coins are just plain "Interesting"
