Rocket , I want to hi-lite ( enlarge ) my small SDC gold bits similar to your token . Starting with the camera how do I do it .
Sorry its a bit off thread with your subject .

Cheers

If your camera has macro you can use that, plus you need lots of light. I just use my phone, (dont seem to need macro) then crop the photo, which enlarges the image you kept after cropping.

Crappy hunt findswise, but loving the weather, and exercise

 

[rocketaroo]

Bread token, as clean as I can get it. Token used from 1930 to 1960.

[Rockhound]

[rocketaroo]

That's one heck of a hunt RR!
1850...? 1 or 7? And its cool how the button has the text on the back..lovely 3d silver too, nice finds
I havnt dug up a token yet, can't wait

 

[Sandta]

Says he was living with william wilkinson....
Bit of a coincidence ... Maybe a long shot
I wonder if it could be the same family

 

[rocketaroo]

1857 the token, yes funny coincidence Sandta. Token is a scarce one, seen prices from 70 to 150 for it.

A great little hunt Rocket. Nice token and the thrip is in great condition.

 

[Goldpick]

couple hours after work, RJ and I asked to find a head shock sensor from a footy field. No luck finding it, but we now have a new permission.
