Nice macro. A black background would've looked better.

Nice macro... the " 5" on the top coin enhances the subject.

The narrow DOF makes the coins edges stand out nicely. Good shot.

The colors in this shot are really nice. I like that you used something metallic as the base surface as well. Great clarity on the coins, really brings out the detail.

I love the shallow DOF here. If the glare on the edges could of been subdued a little it would of been perfect to me. 9

Nice work, I would suggest a little more dof would sharpen up the image, well done
