I got a pound of foreign coins which brought my collection up to 56 different countries, a multitude of Lincoln sets bringing me down to 14 years short (although a lot of mintmarks short) and a 1914 D Quarter that I bought on Ebay from a member of this forum. I did take photos of some but did not upload yet.
Here's a really lousy photo of all my world coins togther. More then half I got on Wednesday,
Arrived today. Another 1928-S, Large S (the last one is posted on page 15 of this thread). Pic at upper right is enlargement of the date. Pic at lower right is comparison of large & small mint marks.
I need to take some more pics as I have fallen behind - especially of the recent ones from other forum members, but this one was from the OP himself, LeeG pedegree!
An old green tag holder Gem with killer surfaces, lovely, light original color and exceptional luster. You'll be hardpressed to find any frost breaks or contact marks on this ultra Gem - just a very, very nice coin!
Lee, I was just drooling over that coin today, thinking about calling to buy it..................but looks like it's already gone! I guess he hasn't updated his site yet..... for me for you

Not a purchase but it's my latest aquisition. My brother found it in his "junk" drawer and gave it to me.
It's the 1900 on the top left. I've had the others since I got into the hobby in April. I just have not figured out how to photograph single coins yet.

Just remove 5 of the coins and reshoot..................voila........pic of a single coin, pretty neat huh?..
Remember it's not how you pick your nose that matters, it's where you put the boogers.
i can almost taste this one...a very tasty one it is too...sadly though i'm out of commish after it for 4 months...this pic does it no justice at all either
everything in life is but merely on loan to us by our appreciation....lose your appreciation and see
Picked this guy up about 2 weeks ago and it just arrived this past week. A nice R5 variety and with the addition of the reverse CUD it turns into an R7 and very likely finest known with the CUD!
The Retained CUD is extremely rare, as most other specimens of this die variety without the Retained CUD just have a light die crack through the middle of the "O" in "OF"
Lots of cool coins here... but surely more of you have been buying coins too
This one just came in the mail today. Was a very tough coin to find. I'm now up to 27 out of 30 coins for the 1909 Mint Set, getting close to completion
