My first macro shot

A Nevada quarter... hopefully I'll find some insects tomorrow when it's light out

very nice and sharp

You can see how narrow is the depth of field with macro shots.
What aperture did you use ?

Indeed... f/5.0

it's better to use small aperture with macro such as f11 to have more depth of field.

Reality shows the shallow DOF. Nice shot.

That's just a coin on a table. Just wait until you get outside and try and photograph moving bugs on swaying leaves.. That's real macro photography for you!!
