From the land of shrinking water, water...

From the land of gold, and lofty redwoods,
Comes the type set upgrade,
Comes the headlight luster,
Comes the empty wallet,
Daaaaamn.....

    You could buy a ton of Hamms with the proceeds of that!

    Hamms was always my go to beer for steelhead fishing.

    @panexpoguy Next time you take pics of the coin, use paper coffee filters over the lights to diffuse the lighting. Works especially well on gold. Very nice double! Would love to own one that nice.

    It sure is a beautiful ( Well Struck) piece.
    Congratulations 🍾

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

    Trying to help me take better pictures is like trying to teach me to dance. There is just no way to get there from here. But I appreciate the advice. I have jansjos and I have put a few layers of tissue over them, but my pictures are still trash...

    Edit for typo

    Yours is higher grade than mine and I don’t have a distracting green booger stuck on mine, don’t want one I prefer coins that don’t need one to convince me of the grade. I like yours a lot mine is the highlight of my box of 2.
