Thats a nice hoard. Only around 20% BB rate then.

I've not seen any pictures of a BB bag before so I find those interesting.

OK you caught me.....I'm a microbiology guy, not a math major.....

Those 63's and higher are hard to get

<< Those 63's and higher are hard to get >>

Yes, they are

It took quite some time to put it all together.
And now I have sets....1 in copper and 1 in brass, they look very cool next to each other

Now the question is.............which ones to sell

This picture is last weeks delivery and today's. I still have one more order coming

Stefanie,

Congratulations on assembling such a nice variety of material. Neat neat stuff!

Did you photo it all before sending it in? I have the dicken's of a time photographing through a slab.

What does "Environmental Damage" mean ?

<< What does "Environmental Damage" mean ? >>

ED normally means that there's some sort of corrosion.

How did you do the set up of reflections etc... on photobucket?

julie43 · October 15, 2008 11:59AM

Stef, You have the coolest tokens I have ever seen !!!!!!!!

too bad about the bb's but 4 isn't bad on such a large submission. Julie

<< How did you do the set up of reflections etc... on photobucket? >>

The have different options on the right top side of the page...Main, organize, grid and slide show.
I click on grid and they give you the reflections automatically

I also set the setting colors to black and it looks much nicer that way.

It coulda been a MUCH bigger bottle!

And........I'm beginning to think that Stefanie could have her own forum on some of this stuff she finds! All very cool!

Thanks Lee.

Here's more cool stuff.

A rotated reverse on the left image & struck thru

...........but alas, no respect from token collectors I guess

Very cool Stef,

Did you send them in on the economy submission ? If so, how long did it take ?
Thanks

illini420 · October 15, 2008 4:15PM

some cool ones there!! thanks for posting!

looks like you submitted right at the cut off for getting some of the old NGC slabs in your earlier one and new ones for this more recent one. at least you didn't get the new edge views that block part of the coin's surfaces if you try to photo...

TwoSides2aCoin · October 15, 2008 8:57PM

Thank you for always sharing, Stefanie. The photos you share and the time spent posting is taxing for some of us, but it is also a labor of love for that which we involve ourselves in. Don't be sad that yours aren't always appreciated. (I'm not a token guy or foreign coin collector)

I like U.S. coins and if not for posts of other coins or other orbs, in general, by people like you and the rest of you guys (you know who you are from our behind the scenes chats) my horizons could never have been widened. It's humbling to post here, exposing my widgets but on the same token, I've met the grandest of the grand by participating here.

Yerser swell (that's how we say "yours are okay" in corn country).
