Too high key. Good subject and background and framing, just a little bright

I like the color of the glare that the coin casts on the surface. The dust is a bit distracting to me.

just a little bright on the upper left, the kind of thing a slight change in angle might've corrected. like the 'reflection' in the foreground. nice.

i really like coin macros...the lighting is the hardest part really...it's a little to hot on the top half of the coin though

I would like it a tad less exposed on the upper left of the coin but this is a great shot. I like the way it reflects light on the table in front of it.

I'm sure you already know this but it seems a little bright on the upper-left edge.

Good macro, good focus, good color.............poor lighting. Hard subject to light I'm sure.

Nice macro. Just a little over exposed at the top left of the coin. Of course, this may have been the effect you were looking for, but I'd prefer it toned down just a little.

Some over-exposure -- you've lost detail in the top left edge of the coin, and I don't see that it helps to communicate anything useful: in fact it stops the coin looking gold I think: makes it seem a cheaper metal. Still an intersting shot though.
