    Greetings,

    Here is a new coin for me, one of the few I've been able to get this year.

    I'm finally able photograph a bit, but still having trouble with a many of my coins.

    This shot is not too bad.

    Wow!! Fantastic :)

    These curly-winged horses and pigs always remind me of biology genetics labs, breeding experiments with curly-winged Drosophila melanogasters, and ether. :D

    I like your new coin doucet. It just so happens I have one of these. It's not in near as nice of condition and the sybol at the bottom of the reverse is not showing (I need to re-image this coin).
