Well---here goes nothing. Hope it works.

nankraut · October 4, 2004 11:17AM

Shayett---didn't work. Back to the drawing boards, I guess.

ss350camaro · October 4, 2004 11:18AM

nope

Sequitur · October 4, 2004 11:19AM

Nankraut, is the image hosted, or do you need to use the forum space to upload it?

Sequitur · October 4, 2004 11:21AM

O.K., you're close, but you've linked to an incorrect URL. Get the URL right, and you're 95% there.

Look at the address you've got on the photo, by hitting right click and properties on the "red x". There's an extra chunk of address that doesn't need to be there. I can't see the photobucket images myself.

If you fail the first time, try again, and again and you will get it.

nankraut · October 4, 2004 11:25AM

I'm gonna try'er one more time; but I'm so damn old & my eyes are not too good.

Even without the "http://forums.collectors.com/[IMG]" it still doesn't work.

I can feel it working!!!!

Sequitur · October 4, 2004 11:28AM

Kraut, simply post the link here in the forums first, and we'll try the UBB formatting. So just post the link to the image for now. That's step one.

Right, now do this:

[IMGdelete] [/IMG]

Between those two brackets, put this:

https://us.v-cdn.net/6027503/uploads/oldattachments/1798-Large-Cent-Obverse-2.jpg.jpeg

Then you're home free.

nankraut · October 4, 2004 11:29AM

Damn!!! I feel like I've been born again!

The next step is this:

mgoodm3 · October 4, 2004 11:31AM

hit "quote" to one of the above messages and you can see the format.

nankraut · October 4, 2004 11:31AM

I just wanted to show you guys something that's older than I am.

<< I can feel it working!!!! >>

BINGO

Sequitur · October 4, 2004 11:33AM

I can feel it working!!!!

Uh, you're not seeing blue, are you?

nankraut · October 4, 2004 11:34AM

By golly...I think I've got it. Thanks guys--especially "jonesy" who sent me a detailed "how to".

stman · October 4, 2004 11:34AM

AT and FUGLY!!! (sorry I had to do that, learned it from YOU)

Followed by:

<< Damn!!! I feel like I've been born again! >>

Almost sounds like a Viagra moment.

Nice. She isn't pretty, but think of the history there. That could have been the first 1798 Large cent minted, and George Washington could have been the first person to put it in his pocket. The possibilities are mind boggling!

Shhh, Don't say that too loud, you might give PCGS some nasty ideas...

....Imagine a PCGS Presidential Pocket Change Slab....

nankraut · October 5, 2004 2:42AM

Maybe I should send it in to PCGS??

lordmarcovan · October 5, 2004 6:39AM

That looks like somebody made a nice detector find!
