Ok so I finally got a halfway decent picture with my dino-cam...this is a test....and maybe while you are at it grade? I'm thinkin G4 or G6..but I'm a definate novice....ok so maybe not the best pics...how do I get them to fill the window they are in
(1) Use something to trim out the white space on the pictures. (2) If you use attachments I believe they are always thumbnails. To get the big pictures use something like photobucket.com. On photobucket you upload the picture, select the pictures, generate html. Then cut and paste the links generated into the post. You can imbed thumbnails or the actual pictures into the post. As to the coin I say G-4. Nice coin, a couple of rim ticks, but looks nice overall. I like the color of the coin in the pictures.

aaaahaaaaa! I think photobucket is the answer....now to get a camera that will take pictures of my smaller coins
First, you need to clean up the html. Your 94-O Morgan grades G-4. Nice coin for the grade, but in this market, not worth much more than melt. This weeks Grey Sheet had the bid at $39 for a VG-8, and dealers are buying way back of Sheet in this market.
IMO the grade is GD I agree that Photobucket is the answer when you want to post a full sized photo in the post. For quick posting of a photo, you can avoid putting your photo to Photobucket & just use CT's manage attachment feature. Your photo (on your computer) must be below 250kB. You simply go to manage attachments, browse & select the file on your computer, and upload. As long as your photo is cropped & less than 250kB, then it will normally post just fine. If someone wants to see your photo even better, all they need to do is click on it & it will enlarge in another window.
thanks for the photo help...and thanks to everyone else for the grading...I am trying to learn....reading reading reading...soon more pics...
thank you for the pricing,,,,I don't know why, but this is one of my favorite coins...had it for years...can't remember what I paid for it...but I am a cheapskate so probably not much..
However, as I learned in another post, when you reduce the file size to 250kb, you want to use an editing tool that doesn't re-size the photo to a smaller size at the same time you are reducing it to 250kb..
I think that was the problem I had on my original post...the thumbnail was tiny...I used paint....only photo editor I have and know how to use...
