Hi Paddy, thank you for your comments. I will take a closer look at it when I am back home in some weeks. In the meantime here is a close-up...
Glad you added your first legionary, Andres. A good example of Legio IIII. You may find you cannot stop at just one....:). I have a small...
Two lil' New Orleans mint half dimes. 23 euros and 18 Euros respectively - bout' 47 bucks. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]

I consider myself a strict and poor amateur when it comes to taking pictures of my coins. No pretenses here. My equipment consists of my wife's...
Nice example of the S-3, (way better than mine). Taking pictures of copper coins is a challenge and an art, and one I have not mastered yet.
I hope it turns out to be a discovery coin. Have you found an inverted date yet? I recall you were looking for one.
I currently use all of the options below: - Velvet trays - Intercept Shields - Self-adhesive cardboard 2x2's. - PVC-free plastic flips - Paper...
