    Glad you like it James, I think that was one I found, but after so many coins and beers, I could be mistaken. image

    I recieved my coin today...A nicely toned 1945 South Africa 3D. I took pictures of both sides, but somewhere between taking the picture and putting it on the computer, the obverse pic got lost.

    I'd like to thank all the guy's who made the giveaway possible. You picked out some great coins.

    Who got my two little red farthings?

    That blue Mexican 20c was sweet- I remember it well.

    Not me. I've just received a very pretty copper 1926R 10 centessimi from Italy. Vittorio Emanuelle 3 obverse.

    The kind of coin that makes me wish I had a digital camera (and know how to use it image ) ; it has some wild orange-purple toning , not the dull colour that I've posted. Thanks a lot guys ! image

    Alright, my new scanning abilities are SEVERELY limited...but today I received a wonderful Hong Kong 5 cents. All I managed on the scan was the 'autofix' setting. Needless to say, it is much better looking in person, and now I have to try and learn my photodeluxe and scanner software a little better! Here goes...

    I believe I got the other Lord M farthing. A sweet '56, tons of lustre (a Brit coin, so I'll go with the Brit spelling). I wish I could post a pic, but I am technologically deficient.

    Thanks to all who made this possible.
  • spinaker2000spinaker2000 Posts: 4,329 ✭
    That's great !! image Only one more to go and it's newbie's, and I even know what this one is!! image It's one of mine, the only one left.

    Drumroll please.................................................................

    My winner arrived from the FUN shop folks!

    Thanks a ton. My photo does not capture the true and wonderful color of this coin. It has a great blue tone with highlights of red.
