<p>[QUOTE=&quot;StephenS, post: 270843, member: 4599&quot;]Hi all,</p><p><br /></p><p>I went to the Smithsonian Castle museum in Washington DC earlier this week and got to see some pretty neat coins on display. I tried taking pictures of them, but with the way they were displayed and with the crappy quality of my digital camera, the pics didn&#039;t turn out too well.</p><p><br /></p><p>Among the coins on display, I saw the 1913 liberty head nickel, several patterns including the St. Gaudens double eagle, and my favorite, the Brasher Doubloon. </p><p><br /></p><p>Has anyone else been to see this? I was a little disappointed at how they were displayed. The case where the coins were located stood upright with a solid background. This meant that you could only see the obverse of the coins. In some cases they would put another example of the coin up showing it&#039;s reverse, but not on all of them. </p><p><br /></p><p>-StephenS[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
