Thank you! I'll check it out.
It was hard to avoid glare on the rest of them. They are covered with a thin layer of sand like dirt, probably in combination with wax. So it...
Thanks, Bing!
It's really hard to get good pics of bronze coins. I like the OP pic very much, but we all have room for improvement. I used to take decent pics...
