[QUOTE="eddyhops, post: 227929, member: 8923"]I am relatively new to collecting (this is my second post, my first is under the "searched rolls" thread and is basically copied here.

I've attempted to take some pictures of the seven which I don't believe are very good, it's my first attemt at photographing coinage, and I left the pictures on photobucket to maintain size, I hope this is ok.
