Sweet type set!

I particularly like the colors on the 1811.

Very nice. The hawaii looks nice with a little wear.

I like the 1811... is that a die crack I see? Kinda looks circular, running from upper left down to the lower right...

George,

It is a die crack and a cool one. Runs in a 270 degree arc thru the obverse.

Excellent images John.

Nice pics..

What type of software do you use to crop only the round coin. I have 2 or 3 different types of software but none let me crop circles.

Herb,

I use photoshop 7.0.

It is in the elliptical marquee tool. If you hold the "alt" button down when you select a point on the coin it allows you to make a perfect circle..

Nice coins and superb photography. You could be the West Coast Frank!

Great images John and great coins. I really like the seated and the Barber. When will they be available for a closer look?

Wow, on the 1807. As I'm sure you're aware you will NOT find one better struck than that! That is a premo coin.

Robert,

Thanks for the "west coast Frank" comment. Dont know if I am quite there yet but I will continue to work on it...

Tom,

I think it is about time you started selling me some coins!!! I am in a buying mood!! I think that I regret selling about 75% of the coins that I have sold you!!

Donovan,

Thanks. I bought that coin raw, knew it was choice for the date. Very good luster on it as well.

V.r,
John
