It's reimage time Post 'em if you got 'em

I had a crack party this morning and finally freed a couple of coins from their slabs. Much easier to take more acurate images this way. 1913 Goetz Wilhelm II Prussian 2 Mark Pattern in Bronze ( Was in an NGC PF 64 Holder )

    Wayne- did you get that thaler from Don? Looks familiar- very nice!

    So you got one of those Cyprus coins with the longship on 'em, eh? That's one of the pieces I had set aside for you. I think the one I set aside is pretty nearly identical to the one you posted. Maybe it has a teeny bit more red- I forget. Anyway, it's yours one of these days, the next time I ship you a package.

    Can you keep a secret?

    I own a tiny Turkish gold coin: a 1/4 zehri mahmud (I had the date somewhere but lost it and now I can't figure it out: rotate at will)

    This is one coin of the 10 piece 1911 Specimen set in original case that I bought myself as an X-mas present this year. The pic is not the best as I took it hurriedly on the day it arrived. It does not quite do the coin justice. I had hoped to work on additional images of the entire set this weekend so that I might share them with the Forum.

    Unfortunately my home was broken into this week image and my camera was one of the items stolen. My collection was spared for the most part - thank God !! They only got a few coins I was going to add to my coin clubs auction.

    Since it will be a while until the insurance claim is settled and I have a new camera - this is the best pic I have to share. I rather like it even if it does not show the full beauty of this coin image

    Darkhorse,

    Where do you find all those nicely toned Canadian dollars?
    image

  • Options
    Just at the local coin shops. They have loads of these dollars and so chances were good I could find a nice toned one and I did.

    The '73's toning is a bit subtle so it's still in its case, hopefully it will tone up a bit more.
