I like coins myself, but I have not really photographed them.

The only thing to me is the focus, would have been nice to see the "pence" in focus as well.

Thanks. I thought about sharp focus across the entire coin, but then it would just be a close up photo of a coin ....... Maybe that's all it is to some anyway, but I was aiming to get the viewers focus on the soldier design.

All comments welcome though !!

I see, yeah that makes sense. If that is what you were aiming for, you nailed it.

....maybe not "nailed it", but (IMHO) good enough to put on this board for criticism. So "thank you very much" for taking the time to give me your thoughts.
