<p>[QUOTE=&quot;gxseries, post: 2101928, member: 4373&quot;]I have been lurking on the forum from time to time but have been busy. Life has been a roller coaster ride for me and I got around to squeezing some time to catalog what I have. Turns out it&#039;s a lot more work than I thought.</p><p><br /></p><p>Recently I have been designing coin albums and preserving a selection of coins with Verdicare. The preservation project is well worth it. Digital coin albums... there isn&#039;t just enough time to do everything. Probably a sign to downsize. </p><p><br /></p><p>Enough talk and here&#039;s a couple of links:</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://gxseries.com/numis/preservation/coin_preservation_project.htm" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://gxseries.com/numis/preservation/coin_preservation_project.htm" rel="nofollow">http://gxseries.com/numis/preservation/coin_preservation_project.htm</a></p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://gxseries.com/numis/numis_index.htm" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://gxseries.com/numis/numis_index.htm" rel="nofollow">http://gxseries.com/numis/numis_index.htm</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Yes, I know I ought to spend more quality time to redesign my site... I&#039;ve split the coin preservation selection by countries. I&#039;ve preserved more than what&#039;s shown - it just takes time to resize photos and then document them. Trust me, I&#039;ve been trying to go faster than what I can. I&#039;ve nearly used one whole bottle (2oz) and probably have to get a couple more. I didn&#039;t expect to go through it THAT fast! </p><p><br /></p><p>The Sadagura preservation and Uighurstan project has been a reasonable success. Many of these coins just don&#039;t pop up in the market these days and this is more than a good reason to preserve them. </p><p><br /></p><p>As of what is coming next, I am planning to focus on preserving Korean Empire coinage and then finish the digital coin album - it has been long overdue. I&#039;ve already started doing some and many of them have come out to be stunning. Some are better than what&#039;s offered in the market these days. They will be photographed and then put into the digital coin album. Not something I want to make another duplicate set out, or rather, impossible to do so. Another interesting thing I have noticed is the die rotation of the early copper (5 fun and 1 fun) and nickel copper coins (1/4 yang) - they are just all over the place! </p><p><br /></p><p>What is next would be probably China Manchukuo coinage and then Russian coins and then Japanese...? I can dream on I guess.</p><p><br /></p><p>Anyway enough rambling and enjoy the view![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
