Great, now I have the anthem of the USSR stuck in my head. Neat finds, though.
Thank you for the info. Wow, my hunch was right, even down to the western part.
As with certain ancient coins, one wonders how practical it was to lug a bunch of Morgans around? I also was shocked to see a gold 1850's quarter...
It's cool, I could see myself buying the occasional toned Morgan.
I was referring to a USB stick. The setup I want to copy featured the top half of a clear coin capsule, but I don't have any at the moment.
I was aware of Bryan, and his position on silver, but not of some of the other people. The political buttons were very interesting. I just got...
Granted, it's tough to tell from my imperfect pictures, but I didn't see any disagreements to the grade. Did Coins Plus get it right? There is...
Little plastic crud is the specialty of dollar stores. Perhaps there will be something perfect for the coin stand/spacer. The memory stick...
That's very kind of you. You should see my sad attempts at photographing ancient coins. I can photograph people well, just not macro objects.
I might be making one of my rare trips to the dollar store, in order to rustle up some cheap supplies for work. I'll look for some cheap picture...
Are Morgans a full ounce? I wanted to get a co-worker a thank-you present, but she wasn't really a coin collector, and I didn't really want to...

[ATTACH] Here's a quick pic of the Friday coin. Using the phone's raw mode and setting the phone on a soup can worked relatively well for a...
Thanks, it shows how much I know about U.S. coins. I can tell you about every Roman emperor, but I know next to nothing about U.S. coins. I'm in...
Opportunity cost is easy. I only have so much budget for coins. If I were to do modern, it would be something like Louis XIV medals.
I assume this one was from the DC mint?
We collectors of ancients usually have this criteria for our coins: 1) Do I like the coin? 2) can I afford it? 3) the grade, within reason,...
"Where can I sell it?"
I come from a background of ancient coins. I've been collecting them from 30 years, and all my knowledge revolves around ancients. I could tell...
Well, I decided that I'd just go with the expensive option, registered, to avoid Priority Mail. I factored in what I valued my own time to be/not...
