Nice coin, love the "Beehive" hairdo ala B-52's.

 

Nice, I have a "dont care" when it comes to "detail" coins like that.

 

Nice to finally have a decent 39-D in my collection..

Picked this guy up just recently. Too bad the obverse would keep it from a 67 most likely, would have been a nice jump in price from 66-67. reverse is very attractive.

 

thanks Mat

 

1964-D Washington Quarter (PCGS MS66). Thanks goes out to gbroke for selling this one to me. The final year of silver business-strike Washington's went out with a bang with this example. I love the full rainbow on the reverse -- red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet -- the full spectrum is there and that's a rarity.

 

Just picked this one off the 'bay as a best offer about 1/2 hour ago. My second toned ASE:

 

New Bustie. :thumb:

 

Picked these up today at a LCS. My 1st 10oz bar, some rounds and some 40%.

 

That NH quarter is tasty!

 

Sure looks like it to me.

Picked up a coin for my DMPL/PL set, been a long time.

 

Recently I have been working hard at trying to image coins. I stubled across a plan for an axial lighting box on another forum and figured I would give it a shot. I built the boz out of white foam board so that I could get the best lighting for my coins. I also came across a set of plans to build a photo stand. In a matter of a day I had my very own home built axial lighting box and photostand. "I thought to myself now I got it" Boy was I wrong lol. So I am still struggling with my images but I think largly in part to the camara I am using. The macros on it is just not that great. Well now that I have run on about my issues here are to images of the same coin that I bought today. Let me know what you think as I can use the help of you great photographer out there

This one is using a 29w Reveal Light bulb

This one is a 53w Reveal Light bulb.


Curently I am looking for a better light bulb if anyone has some advise that would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for looking.

 

Another new purchase and image trial

 

Gonzo, you may be doing overkill. My images are lights and coins. Simple. Dont overdo it.

 

Another purchase I made today. This is my first Bust Half. Picked her up for $50. A dollar per cent I think I could handle that. Unfortinatly it is marred on the obv next to her face.
