BlueCC images of some Mercs from my set taken at Whitman

I know that some do not care for toning, or my type of toning, but I like the originality of these examples, and toning runs most of the spectrum. Todd does a great job.

    A great set of coins.

    Is that 1929 a DDO, or is it just machine doubling?

    Great coins imaged by a well-respected photographer. Nice. :)

    I have only completed the late date set which still has coins needing to be imaged, and the basic date set I am working on is only about half complete with many needing photos. The late date is Mini Merc Menagerie and the basic set is Buddy Can You Spare A Dime

    Great run of nice coins, I can appreciate the originality of your 1920.

    I like the 42 obverse toning. The colors/pattern reminds me of the photos of the universe I see in my astronomy magazines.

    LOL That is EXACTLY what I thought when I saw it. I could only think of the Hubble images I have seen.

    Nice pics of some very nice higher grade Mercs. I really like the look of the 39 in the old rattler holder.

    Nice coins and nice photos.

    Nice collection of Mercs.

    The bitterness of "Poor Quality" is remembered long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten.
