Well I made my usual rounds to the antique store I usually go to. The guy buys estate sales from all over the US. He offered me a specific lot of world coins. While scanning through them I noted I would be well over the $30 he asked for the lot of them.
When I arrived home and went through them I had:
1--1977 Jubilee silver crown in mint case
1--1979 silver 5 mark 150th annv coin
1--1933 Canada 1 cent
1-- 1861 Nova Scotia 1 Cent (some build up on it)
1--1895 silver 50 cent piece (some build up but nice)
1--1946 US Booker T washing 50 cent comm
1--1944M silver mexico 1 peso (AU-UNC)
1977 Austria mint proof set
One for the holey vest 1928 canada nickel hole at top.
and some other various coins.

Start Menu > All Programs > Accessories > Paint, if you have XP. Then hit Ctrl+W or Image > Stretch/Skew.
You can increase and decrease the size of your image that way and save the results. It'll decrease your filesizes, too.
Sounds like a good haul for thirty bucks!
PS- that piece with the griffon on it is cool.
PPSS- read my "pet peeve" thread.
I know you didn't do it, but please CRIMP THOSE STAPLES FLAT BEFORE THEY DO SOME DAMAGE!
