<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Catbert, post: 598359, member: 12718&quot;]Some of you guys may remember Madonna&#039;s song &quot;Vogue&quot; where she launched a dance craze around her line &quot;strike a pose&quot;:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><img src="http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh297/IndianaCatbert/Closeup%20Fun/Vogue.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Well, along the same vein, let&#039;s put together a thread that members can post close up photos of numismatic items that strike their fancy.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Here are some guidelines. 1. The photo should be a macro view or close up of a part of the total item whether it is a coin, paper bill, book, etc. 2. It must be an item they own 3. The poster should say something about why they took the particular shot and why it interested them. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>OK, I&#039;ll go first. First I must put on my eyeglasses :rolling::</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><img src="http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh297/IndianaCatbert/Closeup%20Fun/BigGlasses2.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Now, for my first macro shot I chose a CC Morgan Dollar. It seems that with the Morgan type, everyone wants a CC version so since this series seems to be the most popular in the hobby, it is right to post a pic. My coin close up is the mint mark - &quot;tilted CC&quot; variety:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><img src="http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh297/IndianaCatbert/Closeup%20Fun/1884CCMorganGSATilted2.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Now it is your turn! For an incentive, I will give away a modest prize (TBD) for what I determine to be the best picture and story behind their selected pic(s). Have fun![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
