And what does your avatar mean?

Mine is not a logo or such device. It just a simple snapshot showing the edge of a modern US $1 note and a couple of bullion AGEs. It could be representative of a range of collecting and money related interests.

Mine changes about weekly! I've created hundreds of them and any image will work on this site. Most sites have a restriction of 125X125 Pixels. I figure if I change often, (often coin varieties) someone will ask a question or will be enlightened on something they may be missing. (Got to change again)

My avatar is my favorite coin in my collection. I found it underneath a cash register at a gas station I was working at about 5 years ago during college.
