RYK · February 29, 2012 2:31AM

I have had lots of coins as a background, from dirty gold to a proof gold buffalo.

lcoopie · February 29, 2012 2:33AM

I only place a coin on my desktop when
it's ordered,
and in shipment to me,
so the anticipation works its way
to a frenzy when it
arrives,
and I just
explode upon opening the package.

When the computer was hidden in the back bed room I had this, now it's just that blue sky windows has as a default.

coinsarefun · February 29, 2012 5:38AM

Usually its the newest coin I bought or this one.

The house I grew up in in Cleveland(Orange Village) for those who live in Cleveland area, my Dad built it in the 1950's

or, one of the pictures in Pennsylvania, this is the road to our cabin.

and this is the clearing looking down on the cabin, to the left used to be a huge barn back in the 70's when we left it was well over 150 years
old but the new owner demolished it

The whole property was a little over 60 acres.

Ahrensdad · February 29, 2012 5:40AM

Picture of my Serbu 590A taken in 2006 Afg. A constant reminder to myself of the cool, pre-marital assets I used to be able to buy and keep!

messydesk · February 29, 2012 8:54AM

This is from the fern room at the Lincoln Park Conservatory in Chicago. I shrunk it down a little.

I just have the standard Windows background on my computers right now. I used to have this as my background image, courtesy of CRO -

My daughter "enjoying" the icy waters of the Meese Hole, my favorite swimming hole in the North Carolina mountains.

Here's another picture of it.

It was adjacent to my grandfather's farm. You could jump off the rocks in that second picture and swim across to the sandy beach on the other side. All of it is surrounded by woods. The water is crystal clear and about thirty feet deep. You can see the rainbow trout swimming in it.

I agree, if we still had bills like that people might have more faith in the dollar

Swampboy · February 29, 2012 2:41PM

I currently have a black screen with some gorgeous gold floating in the middle.

This is an image of a piece for sale a while back on Legend's site.
It was snapped up before I even had a chance to call.

Recently I've used the Trueview of coinsarefun's feuchswanger and an image of lakesammmans C & G $20 avatar coin as well as a colorful 1806 half I found on Coinfacts.
Usually 2 -3 weeks is how long a desktop theme works for me.

so whats your desktop background...coins or???
