I will update this post to add the rest of my 19th Century U.S Silver so I don't flood the forum.

It seems to be working fine. Axial shots will pick out the detail but tend to flatten out the lustre of the coin. Some things for OP to contemplate.
- Get a grey card and figure out how to lock the white balance on the phone. You calibrate the phone by putting the grey card where the coin would go, pointing the phone at the card and then setting the white balance lock. This will be more significant when photographing gold, as gold tends to confuse the software that auto-calibrates the colour balance on the camera.
- Learn how to use raw image files rather than taking pics directly to JPEG.
- Take a look at the 'open camera' app.
- Consider getting one of the little bluetooth dohickeys that let you trigger the shutter without physically touching the camera.
Very helpful tips, will give that a go, cheers!

Very nice and smart idea!
I am interested to buy one, but should have on the back side a 20/10mm rectangular hole. I'd like to use your device not for coins, but for spoons hallmarks.
I can't explain exactly how should be, but I'm sure you understood the idea. The hole's purpose is to push the spoon until catch the hallmark in picture.
Thank you!🤗
Cheers, yeh I get you, I wasn't planning on making them to sell, I am happy to provide the G Code to anyone to use, once I have tested it of course

Perfect, still in prototype stage but I think it should work

Hi all, I have used axial light in the past for my coins and it is by far the best in my opinion, the setup I had rustled up out of card was too bulky and tended to need a large desk space and some setup time as well as a plug socket for lighting.
I have come up with this simple design which is currently printing, size was a big issue for me as it should be easy to take a picture of your coins without having a dedicated space or having to set up a rig so I have designed this around a small battery powered LED light that secures on the back, it is roughly 160mm in length, 80mm in height and 77mm in depth, apart from the height, it is no bigger than a mobile phone so nice and compact and no need for a dedicated space. Phone just simply lays on the top of the box to take a picture.
Glass is blue on the model to help see it better.
Not including 3D printer, full roll of filament or glass cutter as I already had them, the cost for entire setup is under £25, £3.18 for filament, £20 for LED and £1 for glass inside picture frame, I will try some 1 way mirror film and compare images.
I know I have jumped the gun without having it already printed and tested but I will update as I go, cheers.

2014 silver eagle back in 2014, paid £22 posted, silver was around £12/oz I think, this was before I discovered the second hand market.
I remember how disheartened I was come 2015 when silver had dropped to £9/oz, I'd lost a whole £3 on my 1oz of silver 😄
