The 2x2 holders in pages... (The wheat cents below are not actually that red, the scanner threw the color way off. The first pic shows what the wheats really look like) Lot's of luster here, the scanner couldn't take it... Lot's of luster here too... ENJOY! And please tell me what you think
very nice! I like the Canadian coinage especially... just looks good to me. btw, some of those cents look unbelievably red... crazy
They aren't red at all, they're really a toned light brown. My scanner messed up the colors on those cents, except the Lincoln memorial one.
haha well I was right to be in disbelief... oh well. also. love the mercs. In my opinion, they are one of the most beautiful coins, even when heavily circulated... that and the walker half.
wow you've been busy, nice coins I just got a 1945 canadian nickel today. I'll post pics some other time.
Nice collection, I really like the variety of the designs.:thumb: Those Olympic themed coins are cool also.
Nice collection! I used to collect quite a bit of Canadian coins as well but have kinda strayed away from it. Might have to get those coins back out someday
Hey! Those are some nice coins you have there. I have one of those breast-cancer-awareness quarters. I really like it. What a neat idea.
Thanks for sharing and letting us share in the fun of assembling all those photos. It's very well you should be proud of your collection! Clkinker
lol I love the page of mercs and then the one roosie. duck duck duck duck duck duck duck duck GOOOOOOSE!!!
It's really hard to keep this thread up-to-date, I'm going to stop. I'll just post a few neat things every now and then. Some new stuff: The one on the far right is MS-65 This ancient looks so much better in hand, the scanner messes with the details, colors, and depth. And here's a better pic of the 1887 semi-key date large cent. Mintage 1,500,000 And...here are some beautiful proofs I got off of eBay: http://www.cointalk.com/forum/t46781/
