    Thanks to all for the feedback. The HK-6 is a thrill to own! First one I've ever found, and not likely to improve on it. They're just plain rare.
    The Olympus 700 is easy to use, but still tricky getting lighting and background just right. Stay tuned for more! image

    Very nice but world stuff is "darkside", US tokens and medals are "farside".

    HK-6: Type I 1853 - reminds one of William Barber's various seated Liberty designs including the "Amazonian."
