    I wanted a nice coin calendar, but I wanted to choose the coins for the months. I found a nice photo page template here for openoffice/word.

    http://www.calendarsthatwork.com/calendar.php?calendarId=monthPAp1

    and added my personal photo to make January. Printed out nice, but the file is 450K and can't post it as a paperclip. I used my 55/55 Lincoln as the January photo. Now to decide which photos to use for the other months. :D

    Great Idea! Wouldn't it be nice if the mint issued a yearly calander of upcoming products as well as some historic products. If done tastefully it would be a nice gift for the holidays!

    Thanks ~ Darryl

    post your January coin

    Thank you desertgem. Perhaps everyone could post their January coin. I'm still struggling with my January selection but I'd like to see your 55/55.

    Very best regards,

    Collect89,

    Here is a photo of my 1955 DDO. I made a large photo in case anyone wanted to use it for their calendar. I give my permission for non-commercial use. Does anyone have a nice 1909-SVDB or 1922 no D type 2, that I can use in my calendar?

    I am thinking about having a few printed for my coin club for the Christmas meeting. Maybe next year, the Forum could make up a calendar of member's favorites and print them. Any professional printers around??

    Also attached my 31-S if anyone wants to use it.

    Jim.

    Actually you can't really copyright a straight photo of a coin, but I release all non-commercial rights anyway

    That's for the link, I went there and now I'm stuck......can't decide what image to use. I have so many I like. Maybe I'll make a collage.

    I'm only suprized that www.coppercoins.com hasn't made one of those yet. Since he has taken thousands and thousands of photos of coins.
    I usually get a gun one from the NRA each year, car ones from friends, Animals from the WWF and a stupid one from our town council of our town. A coin calendar would be different.
