    By 2003 when I finally decided to participate in this forum you were already expert in all things Victorian. (As evidenced by the infamous Inaugurata giveaway.)

    Very impressive!

    Reimaging old favourites Mac? I'll reply here for all 4 topics, the coins are absolutely stunning and they really deserve to be photographed like this. Top class images is the best investment a coin collector can do for his collection. Especially if he owns gems like these. image

    Unbelievable what a tug-o-war nice copper brings on these days. Even more common dates with plenty of original red, and even the formerly totally unloved halfpennies. Now if only a little more interest in the 20th C. bits!
    Love that Milled British (1830-1960)
    Well, just Love coins, period.

    Indeed, Mark's (mgoodm3) imaging is among the best. Between the number of shots I need completed, and then finalizing edits such as cropping, adding backgrounds, etc. it will take me well into next year.

    Some are reimages of my woeful past attempts, and others are simply new shots. image But yes, once done, I'll have all my babies on CDs, hard drives, and posted to the Internet somewhere.

    And also, I'm glad the Forum Darksiders are appreciating some of the recent shots of the wee farthings.......I'll have more to share as time permits.

    I image them Mac. imageimage

    I only have one slabbed MS Farthing - an 1860 I think, somewhere around MS62 but BN not RB/RD.
    The meaning of life ? I don't know but I am sure that coins have something to do with it.
