OT- like my new sig line?

lordmarcovan

Small and compact, but I can still show one side of each coin in my whole nonholey personal collection. All six of 'em, LOL.

Ripped off the idea from Russ, sort of, after seeing his long, monotonous line of Kennedies.

(Actually, I had the idea of cobbling together all my old icons of coins I own, a long time ago. Kinda fun. Sometimes it's nice having a small collection.)

Nice work, technically, but I only like one of the coins.

Nice, but would be even better with a short description of each coin... Might be a bit wordy though...

Yes LM, I like your new sig very much. And I would also like to add one or more of those coins to my collection. I am prepared to offer you 3x face for any or all of them, sight unseen.

Some cool coins even though they aren't holed. I think I like #5 the best.

Nice

LM- Looks great and I happen to like them all.

LM,

That Barber half looks like #$%^. You should send it to me.

I like it, I only remember you as the last 4, so, either I have a short memory (I do) or I haven't been around here long enough (I haven't).

You also need to include the period of time in which each of those coins was your avatar, be concise, I would like to see it down to the millisecond using the atomic clock in Boulder, Colorado as your official time source. Please post times in both Eastern Standard Time and Universal Time (GMT).

Looks good, but it is too wide. You should have two rows of three coins. Or a better idea would be to send that proof Half Sovereign to me.

I liked the kitty sleeping on the book.

Really nice!

The Barber half makes my mouth water...

lordmarcovan

I just realized it was too wide. At home, I have a 17" monitor. Here at work, we don't. Apologies to those who had to deal with extra-wide pages because of my sig line pic. I have temporarily deleted it and will go with a text-only sig until I can put the six coins into two rows. (I was trying to avoid that).

Those specimens in your sig-line are beautiful! I'm compelled to venture the 'DARKSIDE' now...

lordmarcovan

Oh, good. Another vict- uh, convert.
