Hers is my advise to photograph your coins much more clearer and flash spot free. Find a small block of nice hard wood and using a electric saw cut a groove wide enough to slip the graded coin into the groove.There should be enough play so that the slab leans back slightly so don't make it too deep either. You can cut a thinner groove for unslabbed coins on the bottom but this cut should be very shallow to allow the maximum view of the coin. Now you have your coin sitting upright facing the camera. Next get a mini flexable camera tripod, turn off the flash option and use the micro setting, usually has a flower as an icon. Light the coin from behind the camera. Look through the eyepiece and move the light to eliminate any glare from your light. Set the timer option and presto.....a perfectly still coin facing the lens with side light should produce really sharp images with no glare.
