I dont collect, post, or even read here much anymore.

But since I continue to pay for my old website I should at least occasionally advertise it here.
I dont have the heart to delete all the hard work, by me, but especially by the collectors who let me into their vaults.
The coins were imaged with an old digital Nikon so dont expect anything special in the way of photography.

Coingalley.org features some of the finest copper collections of all time, by

Tom Turissini (large cents)
Thomas Irwin/Gerry on the boards (Lincolns)
Stewart Blay (Indian Heads and Lincolns)

It also features David Schweitz' Commems (imaged by Tim Larson)

some great patterns and a few other great coins.

Tom, Gerry, Stewart...all great guys, that's what I remember most. Wonderful stories and a passion
about collecting you can feel in their words. To this day I remember them more than their great collections.

    It is already one of my bookmarks, excellent site! I still have the very nice 1906 indian cent from you. You have a wealth of knowledge. It would be so cool if you would continue to share your knowledge.

    Thanks again!

    Tom - you are truly one of the great people I met at the shows, thanks to Tim.

    I still get goose bumps thinking about those glistening, some milk chocolate,
    some dark chocolate, raw Large Cents you own.

    WOW.

    Hi Paul.

    My boy still has that IHC you sent him! I'm on my laptop or I'd post the pic. I think it was a 1907? Anywho it's at the bank box.

    Glad to see you around. I lurk from time to time.

    TJ & Goose -

    I think I still have images of both those coins, the 06 & 07 IHs.

    Glad you liked them. Amazed to see 3 of my favorite forum people still here, 66RB & you two guys.

    Most definately a loss for us. You're one of the few people who posted that I always read what you had to say. Great site with some super coins! Already had it bookmarked. image You need to come around more often.

    Paul- So good to see a thread from one of the forums all time great guys!image I had the good fortune of "being there" when you shot Toms 1794 Large cents at the 2004 Baltimore ANA......amazing results under poor conditions and with a steady stream of onlookers (myself includedimage) it got kinda crowded behind Rick Kays table. A real treat for me with the added bonus of meeting Tom and examining his amazing coins in hand. Hope to see you around here a bit more and maybe at a future show?

    Wow. Now, I'm thinking that I know what "ultimate" means.

    Took a while to find that old image Goose. A really nice old green label 65RD. Photosealed by Rick as well.
    You use to be able to pick these off of Heritage's online inventory 9-10 years ago for $200-300 a pop (imagine that?).
    That's where I found it.
