    Well... I can tell you that it is not LM-1, 2 or 3 image

    And it's a nice looking AU coin image

    1892-O 64DMPL, they just aren't supposed to be struck like this nor have a lustrous cameo contrast.

    I have too darn many favorite coins---that is a problem of mine. But this one coin has a lot of meaning for me. It ain't a cheap piece of silver by any means, but even though I thought about parting with it once- I still have it. The darn thing is so old- they hadn't even invented round yet some 260 plus years ago.

    Coxe, have you ever had someone look at that Morgan to determine if it could be a mythical branch proof? Amazing coin!

    Thanks, and no I have not. I do have a 1900-O that does very much appear to be an undocumented branch mint proof, though, but probably is just a very nice prooflike.

    Two questions.
    1. Where or what do I use to take better pictures of my coins? Is their special lighting or? Scans just dont work for me neither does a digital camera!
    2. How do I a link to this page?

    Thanks for all your replies

    I also forgot to mention. How do I place a picture of my coin on the left of my post like so many of you have. Do I need a special ftp or website to do this?

    Thanks again for putting up with my elementry questions.
