    Most of my co-workers are at the game doing promo stuff right now. I'm about a mile away in the office.

    Over here, so many people are gone that there isn't any work to do so I'm spending my time in the company gym. Works for me.

    Images look good Gonzo. Although, is the color accurate? Copper color doesn't seem to show up in them.

    You know I was looking at that. They seem to be a little on the green side lol. HULK LINCOLN SMASH LOL. I am still working with lighting and I havent found the right light bulb. I have asked a few people about light bulbs but I havent recieved any feedback on it yet.

    Yeah Dex, I was floored when I got his in hand. However, it is not FB.
    I wish though! That would make it a 5 digit value!
    It has been awarded the position of representing Mercs in my 7070 type set.
    Wanted to show the raw shots, which actually show off it's color and luster a little better.

    I have probably 20 or so of the 1971-72 Canadian silver proofs, all with nice toning, but this is one of two or three with "madman" toning. :D

    Cazkaboom One for all, all for me.

    Don't know if I have ever let the forum see this purdy Roosie. Old pics. I think it deserves a re-shoot.

    The center bands are still well formed, split or not. Most always it seems they are flat with not much at all showing in that area. It sure is a pretty one at any rate, ya did real good!!

    Very true dex. I compared it to some other 45's I have and they don't even come close.
    For example:

    Some new pickups (38 Jeff and 61 Peso) and re-imaging of the first mercs I ever bought.
