I love those JP!! :applause:
they are wicked nice :)

 

Thanks Johnny. One thing I thought was very cool was the appearance of smoke from the chimney on the Gloucestershire DH-8 Penny. It's actually a rub on the holder! Kind of a nice effect.

Thanks. Means a lot coming from someone that shoots the caliber you do. The 200mm macro is definitely much better at this than the 300mm telephoto I was using before

Both are awesome, but I actually prefer the rainbow toning of the other. I haven't looked through this entire thread, but does anyone have any monster-toned Indian head cents? I've seen very few of those with cool color.

I'm getting ready to change directions from Proofs (36-64) to Copper.....any advice? I'm selling my proof sets and reinvesting. Copper is just too interesting and varied to stay away from!!!

I think you now see why I started this thread. Collect what you like just like any other coin. But as you see pretty copper is nice

Take your time, look at as many pieces as you possibly can, and learn as much as possible before you spend $'s.
