[QUOTE="Chachie, post: 1463542, member: 38586"]Hey all, I wanted to share a few photos of some of my coins from my Grandparents and fathers collection when he was a kid. Theres a ton of old Canadian stuff, Panamanian, German,Cuban and of course the US. I was real excited so I had to take some quick snaps of a few, but I want to take some time to take some real nice ones with my DSLR and macro lenses. There quite a bit of story behind a lot of these, you will see a stripe in some of these coins, thats because when my Dad was young, like 14-16..he would have a piece of paper, and tape them on the 8x10 lol. So they are very clean where the tape was and very clean on the reverse. My dad had no clue gramps kept my father coins with him at all times, even to the end. It was something they did a lot of together. Gramps gave him a bunch from his travels in ww2. Some are quite rough, I like it.
