World Coins: Your Newest Acquisition!

Not new coins but I decided to take photos of them and take out the background so I can upload to Zeno and Numista if need be. How do you guys remove backgrounds? I found a website that does it for free but only up to 500x500 pixels so it's pretty limiting for anything I'd want high-def. Here are some I've made with them though.

Picked both of these up from the same seller. Im not a big fan of india coins but the strike and appeal on these made me want them.

 

1959 Toned Canadian 25 cents caribou quarter...

 

Got these two at a great price.

 

1912 Belgium 2 Centimes

 

1949 Italy 10 Lire PEGASUS!

 

1964 1 Peso. 10% silver, 100% awesome

 

Those look so nice uncirculated...and so crappy after circulation. I notice they don't mention anything about containing silver in the coin legends.

 

Interesting, I didn't realize it didn't mention LEY .100.

I guess it's too embarrassing to mark your coins as having so little silver

 

Ever get a coin and wonder "but why...?"
1857 50 pesetas

 

They start looking like this...

 

Maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaany times...

 

Check out the "honest wear" on this bad boy

 

Looks like a 1971 50 pesetas

 

Hey that bad boy is mine! It had so much wear I decided to pull it aside to add to my favorites collection.

 

Significant year?

 

Not really, I kinda just liked the female portrait on the obverse

 

I apologize for not giving you credit for the stolen image.

And that is one WORN coin. Definitely great for those Poor-Hunter collections
