Michael,

 

First, go to the testing board and make a blank post. Attach your photo the same as you do in any post. After this is done click on the attachment to open the photo, and go to the address bar. Highlight the info in the adress bar and press Ctrl & C on your keyboard at the same time to copy the URL address. Now make the post you want to put the photo in and when you are ready to insert the photo click on the link that says image. This will bring up a box for you to put the URL address of the photo in. Delete the HTTP// from this box. Put the cursor at the beginning of the box and press Ctrl & V at the same time on your keyboard. This will copy the address of the photo into the box. Click OK in the box. You should see the address of the photo inserted into your post. Complete your post as usual and the photo should show in the post without having to click on an attachment.

Michael,

 

BTW, if you already have the photo that you want to post on a web page somewhere you can just copy the URL address from that web page using the Ctrl & C info I gave you without having to first make a blank post in the testing board.

I couldn't narrow it down to one coin so I chose one design instead:

This coin is graded MS-62 PL by ANACS. There are a few scuff marks in the left obverse field. Does anyone think it deserves a higher grade?

[EVillageProwler]

This is somewhat OT-ish since we're in Lightside territory, but I'll post this anyway.

 

I got this several years ago when I was on a trip to the Angkor Tom ruins in Siem Reap, Cambodia:

i take it evp you had a good time in kampuchea?

 

for me it is a country of many contradictions

 

many go there for a vacation and fun

 

yet many natives over there have to work like slaves for slave wages and many go to bed hungry with not enough food to eat

I've had this one for a long time, maybe 20 years, not sure where I got it, but maybe from my Uncle Ed who started me in coin collecting:

I wasn't there very long, but I mostly enjoyed myself. It was kinda depressing to see so many desperate people there, and so many people maimed by landmines...

Mine this week is this $15 E-Bay coin!

[BOILER78]

This is the only coin I bought all week so this week its my favorite.

[IrishMike]

Wow Boiler nice coin. This is my purple IHC bought at FUN last year.

 

IHC

[BOILER78]

Thanks Mike this coin J1310 was originally part of a 6 piece Trade dollar set sold by the mint for $30/set. They are fairly common by pattern standards R4 (76-200 minted) IMO the mintage is probably closer to the low end of the range.

[Fairlaneman]

Boiler...Those pattern coins are fantastic !

 

Here is a coin that was received from forum member "jom". It has supassed all expectations that were had when the coin was purchased. The photo does the coin No Justice at all. Thanks Much, jom.

OK, that's it, I have to sell a bunch and get a pattern like that, oh my that's nice

This is one of my favorite Kennedies as it has deep, "Morgan" greens and purple with lots of luster.
