This was going to be my first purchase direct from the mint. I am thinking maybe not now. There are other coins I want more for $150.00.
Wow, thanks for that link. the side by side profile shots for each year is amazing! Now, they just need to add 2011 and 2012, and we'll see...
That looks like FB to me, but I am not expert. Looks nice, but the first coins is prettier to me.
Fantasic coin and excellent photo. I love that obverse design.
I dont know what the mint has done to replace actual frosted surfaces with the "look" of a frosty cameo, but they have failed. The coin's relief...
Well, if you are not talking about the Macro/Micro (means same thing) lens, then you might be better off the the 18-55 in terms of close focus...
While I agree the 18-55 is a very nice kit lens, and very cheap, the best part of the sigma /nikkor macro/micro lens is their abilty to focus at...
Well, I have 40,000 family photos of my kids and wife, etc. yes, 40,000+, that is not an exageration, but there are a few other lens mixed in...

Thanks for the compliment, coming from you means alot. I 100% agree with you, the non-axial photographs are by far more accurate and represent...
Dont have any coin pics with my Nikon 18-55 kit lens, sorry. But congrats on the Used Nikon D60 Body. I would recommend the prime 35mm or...
This thread confuses me. But then again, most of what MrBrklyn says confuses me. Is he joking, is it sarcasm, is it neither? No offense....
One more post for tonight. I know I have been blasting the forum lately with my pictures, but hopefully you guys are liking it, and I have not...
Not sure which I like best; normal lighting or axial lighting. For proof coins, normal lighting gives a very stong black & white cameo look....
Great Camera, Great coin, Great photo. :hail: Here is my very first attemp at Axial Lighting. Stole the glass from a framed family photo and...
I was thinking: Wow, those are stunning, and I dont even like Bison Nickels!
I think they graded probably fairly, and gave you the comments to boot. But I dont understand why they would have refunded you and not put them...
