Just wondering, If I wanted to take a picture of a coin by using it on a scanner, will the light from the scanner in any way ruin or tone my coin? I know it's a dumb question, but, better be safe than sorry!:smile
It was a good question coinkid. If you don't know the answer to something, you can bet a lot of other people don't either. So you are helping out a lot of people by asking.
What does GDJMSP stand for ! BTW - did you catch that fast 180 you did on that mint set. I was impressed with the athletism, reflexes and nimbleness. Float like a butterfly .... etc etc Ruben PS - this post should be taken with two teasonpoonfuls of honey and good humor.
Light will almost definetely affect silver. What drove me nuts was scanners of Comic Book Covers. Now there you can talk to me untill your blue in the face and I KNOW that set off chemical events in the ink and paper. Ruben
IIRC, those are his initials. My parents were lazier (more conventional, whatever) and only gave me 3 names, but Doug's parents were overachievers and so he got more!
That part I knew, but since he never signs his name I have to remember the random sequence of letters if I'm to properly address him! Ruben
My name is a story unto itself and with a set of initials that long you can imagine how long the explanation for it would be I've posted the full name several times in the past but I suppose it has been long enough that everyone has forgotten. So here we go again - Gordon Douglas John Michael Spencer Prather - there is only one. And now ya know why I just go by Doug
Okay, I get it - I didn't need to say it's a dumb question. The only reason I said is because those annyoing insults are what I have to put up with at school.
Doug is a whole lot to easier to address you with than GDJMSP! When I got divorced under Jewish law they had a special witness who had a name with about 8 names and the "son of" someone with about 10 names. Evidently it was a tradition in that family in order to forfil the need for a specifically known witness in documents for Jewish courts, such as divorces and monetary disputes. Ruben
