New Website.

CoinBuyer12 · January 25, 2013 6:56AM

I've launched coinswithhistory.com It's currently a work in progress. I was surprised the domain name was for sale.

Besides showing off my current and upcoming collections, I'm going to have some coins for sale from time to time, news on certain coins, and since I metal detect, a blog on what I find. However warmer weather won't be here for a few more months.

you might consider a link to it with a signature line that will appear in all of your posts. This can be done via the profile button.

CoinBuyer12 · January 25, 2013 7:04AM

I will probably do that once the site has been finished.

Check it out. Got the title and logo done. Tell me if you like the title color, or think it should be a different one.

NotSure · January 25, 2013 8:03AM

Copied and pasted your spelling in the original post, and nada.

edited to add...because I just HAD to.

I would get the site up and running, then announce here and look for feedback. People will interest quick with step by step updates on progress. Most people will only visit once or so, you can decide when the time is most beneficial for you when that happens.

CoinBuyer12 · January 25, 2013 8:09AM

Coins With History

Try that.

19Lyds · January 25, 2013 8:10AM

I couldn't get to it so IMO, its a bust.

DoubleEagle59 · January 25, 2013 8:13AM

So far so good.

But I think it's a good idea to finish the website completely and then announce it to us.

MICHAELDIXON · January 25, 2013 8:16AM

Link does not work or me.

CoinBuyer12 · January 25, 2013 8:34AM

Well poo, I dunno what happened. Here is a screenshot of the site.

Constantine · January 25, 2013 8:41AM

What is the point of this post? Your title is "New Website." Yet, your link doesn't work and you have a tiny screen shot with no info. In my opinion, this just a waste of forum space. This feels like something more appropriate for your Facebook page. AND yes, I will move along now........

Where did you get the image from for the 1838 RE half dollar?

namwalker · January 25, 2013 10:23AM

I just have to ask. Is there a problem with the logo for his site or a bit of jealousy?

erickso1 · January 25, 2013 10:32AM

Tom, you mean this one from coinfacts?

DoubleEagle59 · January 25, 2013 10:37AM

The word 'copyright' comes to mind.

mkman123 · January 25, 2013 10:42AM

So far so good but don't use pics without others permissions, you will get in trouble!!!

<< These large scale images are perfect for beautiful prints and for numismatic study. >>

In other words, there is no copyright on these images.

Another post where something is just ever so slightly "off"

Where do they say that?

Not that I'm saying you're wrong and I'm right.

I'd just like to know because I can't find it myself.

lkeigwin · January 25, 2013 11:09AM

This is a joke, right?

Yup, it's not going very favorably nor is there an overwhelming interest.

Edscoin · January 25, 2013 11:48AM

Nice ceiling!

You are in the wrong here. The PCGS stance as communicated by Don Willis is that-

<< TrueView photos are a service PCGS offers for the coin's owner only, and consists only of PCGS taking the photo and then giving the owner a license to use that image for his or her own purposes, with no right to transfer or sub-license the image to anyone else.

If you have paid for a TrueView you can use it for your own purposes as you see fit. >>

Read the thread here.

Treashunt · January 25, 2013 8:30PM

Well, lets just hope no coins are sold at a loss.

I couldn't take another of those threads.

SaorAlba · January 25, 2013 10:11PM

<< Where did you get the image from for the 1838 RE half dollar? >>

Tom, just keep an eye out - with wonderous photographs like you have on your site - you could be his next "image donor"!

I wonder what the fine folks at Coinfacts.com thought of his appropriating their image

CoinBuyer12 · January 25, 2013 10:42PM

Well....darn.

I updated the site with an image of my own coin. I'm going to contact PCGS and ask permission to use their image in the mean time.

ricko · January 26, 2013 12:43AM

Well, it is a beginning, and as you can see, no shortage of 'help' from forum members....Cheers, RickO

How is there no copyright? Where did you see that?
