    That is a nice $20 Liberty. That's my fave US coin design, i absolutely adore them.

    Very nice. Photographs came out well, too, especially considering you were "shooting" through an Air-Tite.

    Nice coins...even if they are gold....!!

    I have my eye on a few coins right now....MS64 Buff nickel....40's proof Quarters....and so one...the problem is...my dealer (that is out of town this week) mgiht have the S VDB I need so I need to save my money and not buy the other coins....maybe I'll take out a loan at the First National Bank of Pop's!!!

    Hey Rickie, you know I do run a cemetery here in Indiana. Send me those "coffins" and I'll make sure they get to their final resting place!!! :D

    Luckily, I also have a black vinyl leather-grain weight bench, so I guess I'm half-way there. ;)

    I'm going to use the wife's Canon as soon as I buy a macro lens for it. I'm going to try to get by with her cheapo camera tripod instead of a specialized stand.
