    Thank you all ;)

    Tyler, if you cant make it you cant make it ;)
    No problem with that.
    Not that i dont want you to send me something, but i dont want to put you in a corner (dont know if that is an expression known in the US)

    Wow, that was fast! Hope you enjoy the coins. I don't need anything back. Just pay it forward to someone else. Glad to be able to help you with collecting the US coins.

    cropped all the pictures (took long enough :p )
    First i would like to say that the colour of the pictures is not as it should be.
    All pictures are taken on a white background, but its not easy to take good sharp pictures :p

    The pictures are the coins i recieved today in combination with the ones i allready had (otherwise i needed to place 48 single pictures)
