    Here's my 1916D Barber. Original color. The scuffs are all on the holder. The previous owner didn't take great care with the holder.

    For some of you great collecters who are having troubles loading up pics to your
    posts, here's what I do.
    1. Click on "reply" button
    2 Click on "symbols" button located at the bottom in bold letters.
    3 Copy and paste the "Image" code line to the message text field where you would
    normally write your message.
    4. Highlight and delete everything between the inner brackets, from http to jpg, of
    that code line. This is what you should have left "(IMG)(/IMG)" But leave the brackets!
    5. Here's the fun part. Granted you already are able to and have pics up loaded to your file listings, It's just a matter of selecting the picture and clicking on the "view file" button
    to see your picture.
    6th and last step; Right click on picture and click on properties. Here you need to copy
    that "address URL http code" and paste it in between those two set of brackets.

    Then you can add text above or below the Image code.

    Hope this works for everyone.

    WOW - Very nice Barney.

    I missed it the first time - that is a beautiful coin.

    (To link an image into a post, click on the [Picture] box on the top of the screen (B,I,U,[Picture]) and a window will pop up asking for the URL for the image. Then just copy the URL you have from your broswer and put it in the window. )

    That's the kind of coin where when you've been amazed enough at looking at it, you just turn it over and the excitement starts all over again! image

    Aren't the SMS Kennedys great? Here's a pure, pristine MS70 sent from heaven. Not toned, but a coin approaching the Platonic ideal....

    Here's one of my favorites - a P65R 1875 from the Pennsylvania collection - hard to capture the luster on a digital photo....marks on rev. are from the holder....is any one still following this thread??
