Thats an awesome site, love it.

 

Keeping it in the family. It's great when our hobbies don't take us away from them. Nice site with good leads. Thanks for the showing.

 

What a fine site you have created. You have managed to capture in pictures and words the true character of coin collecting. The artistry and beauty of your coins will surely captivate and motivate others to this sometimes obsessive thing we call a hobby.
Well done.

 

I'll pay you in the back alley a little later

Its such an old style of organizing a website - but it still works.

Now where did I loose my mp3 collection on that darn hard drive....

Nice web site. Not sure why you made one but guess your proud of the entire family interested in one common item which nowadays is seldom heard of. However, being a little pessimistic due to the area I live, Chicago, I would like to warn you about something. You may not be concerned but with the slightest bit of information, someone that is not necessarily an honest individual can find out so much more than you could imagine. For example you've listed your real name, I presume it's the real one, and the state you live in, a few photos of your family which approximates ages of some members. There are lots of web sites called People Search. Utilizing basic info it is simple to acquire an individuals address, phone number, marital status, amount of family members and their ages, etc., etc., etc. Next you start getting phone calls and no one there. Normal procedure to check if anyone is home.
I am only cautioning you due to the amount of crime I see around me every day. Advertising a coin collection publicly around here is just asking for a robbery. Two such events just on the block I live on. Hundreds or possibly thousands in this area. Of course maybe New York is crime free.
I would suggest you utilize a phony name and state.

 

Thanks for sharing the pics and mentioning Coin Talk. Do take precautions on phone number and your actual location. There are preditors out there!
Thanks for the commentary on what characteristics a good coin should have.

I'll tell you this, this shows a lot of talent. But I'd pay attention to Carl and Clinker, that's good advice. But you'll learn as you go along. Good luck!

 

well

I think this might be my favorite coin photo.

Just a follow up note on my statement. On the news not long ago a TV station went to people search. They typed in CIA just for the fun of it. I believe they paid some small fee and attained names and addresses, phone numbers, office locations and even agents names outside the US. Naturally they withheld most of the info on the news cast. This made me curious. I went there to people search and tried out names from well over 30 years ago that I used to know. In my case it worked out well. I ended up contacting several people, we now get together occationally and discuss the good old days. Naturally they all asked How was I able to find them. However, it made me cautious as to just how easy it is to find out anything about anybody.

 

You don't like the photo of the Morgan? Anyway - Happy Passover and note that Ruben Safir gets nearly 10,000 google hits. I think the horse is out of the barn.

Ruben,that is a cool website.Of course,you will have to run it through a spell-checker to correct the few spelling mistakes.

That photo of the reverse of the Morgan $1 is very cool.It is one of the clearest coin photos I have seen so far.

Ruben
