Hello Minpinroo62,
Ahh we need to stay on topic the 1942-D I didn't say much about adding the 1942-P to the topic above, but we request we stay on topic one coin per post.
The new Nickel should just be added to a new post in the general forum. It's not a variety or error so the only comments you will see are nice coin or nothing at all.
Thanks, Eric

the irony is, there are forums that if you post a bunch of separate threads on diff coins, you are breaking THEIR rules.

i do kinda like the one per post though cuz things tend to take odd paths when left to their own devices but i do try to leave reminding ppl of the rules to the official members of this site, not just member members.

GLAD you're back!

This technique has helped me when posting photo's. Gary "Minterrors" has a nice piece on doing photo's with a cell phone. It's here on the forum.

Here is the steps. I have a copy of it on my desktop.
I added these steps and what forum to post in, at the general forum.
A CONECA staff member made one a sticky, but its confusing since its buried in a post?

As for photo taking, I can suggest that photos be taken as follows:

IF you are using a phone:

Find a box, about 6x6 or 8x8.
Place the box on the table.
Place the coin on the table, close to the base of the box.
Place the phone on top of the box and turn on the camera app.
Carefully slide the phone toward the edge so the camera can see the coin.
Adjust the coin closer if need be.
You can zoom in, but do not make the photo blurry at all.
Make sure there is no glare on the coin, use a lamp vice flash from the phone.
With the phone on the top of the box, you can stabilize the phone with one hand.
Gently tap the shutter to take a photo.

If you have a photo editing app on the phone, if need be, crop most of the background out of the photo.
You should be able to draw a box around the coin.
From there use the cropping tool to remove any unnecessary background.
The cropping tool can look like a bent square.

Photos are best saved as JPG.
The photos on this website have to be less than 2mb each.
You should be able to upload 8 photos per post.
If more photos are needed, you can reply to your post and add more photos.

In the text area where you add a post, just to the top left , is a camera icon.
That will toggle on/off the upload buttons.
To upload photos, click on the UPLOAD ATTACHMENTS.

After you uploaded the photos, the list appears below the UPLOAD ATTACHMENTS button.
Click the area on your post where you'd like a photo to show, like below some text.
Then just below the UPLOAD ATTACHMENTS button choose a photo to place where you clicked.
Choose either LARGE or MEDIUM and the photo should appear in your post.
If you don't add it to the post, they should appear at the bottom of your post as attachments.
