    Well, I'm bored. I have a bunch of new coins to photograph for me and @Mainebill, but wont get it all the photo gear setup until a few more coins come back from CAC.

    In the meantime, here are some Obverse closeups of a few coins you've seen before, but maybe not this closely. So go ahead, dig your peepers into these nooks and crannies, maybe you'll find what you've been searching for:

    Old photos, I was going for detail at the time, not necessarily color or luster.

    Love them all. Really like the 1883 nickel with the die break at the one and eight.

    They look nice, but "Crooks & Nannies" sounds better.

    Take a closer look at that 1883 nickel. There are at least five more die cracks on that coin than just the ones in the date.
