There's no minimum thread count to post photos... and as long as you don't indicate the coins are for sale, there should be no problem posting on...
And if some past threads are any indication, this is a BIG problem.
Well, if you want to believe Wikipedia, he also counterfeited some $3 and $10 pieces. Maybe some more knowledgable members will chime in...
