Access gets a bad rap but it lets you develop a simple application fairly quickly. If you want to handle binary data better just select SQL Server...
I wouldn't add the images themselves. It would be prohibitive to do at high resolution. Something like that would be better handled in MS Access...
That's interesting. Good catch. You can see the rim weakness a little on the obverse as well, immediately to the right of the E.
Found this in an old Whitman album and picked it up for spot. 5% curved clip? [IMG] [IMG]
Ok I've been playing around with different angles of lighting. Here's an attempt to reshoot my SQL Type I type coin compared to the seller photos...
Yea. I managed to shoot through the slab better on the obverse, but the reverse is more scuffed up. I'll buff it out and see if I can get a...
Picked up this NGC AU55 1848 (N-28) Large Cent at a nice price. It's got a great skin with a nice tone. [IMG] [IMG]
Noted. Keep in mind it's a small coin and the spot is really only distracting at 5x magnification. To put it in perspective, the spot is slightly...
Well, I'm not really contemplating attempting conservation on this myself. I'm not really a copper guy; I have all of 2 copper coins of note (an...
I recently picked up a stunning uncirculated 1885KB Hungarian copper krajczar with luster to spare. I'm definitely sending it in to NGC in my next...
That's a great idea to fix the camera and adjust the height of the coin instead. For raw coins I think you'd be looking at more like a 10-40mm...
USPS registered mail is a very safe option as the shipments are kept in locked containers and have a documented chain of custody. The shipping is,...
I found one of those as well, with the missing layer on the drummer reverse. That's as good as it gets for missing clad layer Washington though. A...
Nice looking coin. You can always send it back in for the variety later.
...but they only actually use 30 grades out of the 70 point system as it is. Why add more?
To make money you have to know coins really well and that takes a sizable investment in time and money (for books). You also have to know the...
That's an interesting piece. I haven't seen one like it before. I believe they made repousse Barbers like the one the OP posted at the 1909 New...
When debating whether to keep or sell a coin, figure out the current market value, then consider if you did not own the coin, would you buy it for...
Was about to post this myself. Obviously it's a Barber and most likely a Quarter based on the scale of the devices. Judging by the date and...
I'm really loving this copy stand. Here's a pic of the new setup. The two surprises with the setup were that the lamps required socket extenders...
