Vector Ze, you are King of the Coppers!

I wouldn't go that far. I wish I could get the imaging down.
Yours are fantastic! Something to strive for, for sure!

Since I mentioned 1 pound rounds...
The first image here is from my flatbed scanner.

That hunk of metal weighs 472 grams. It is 80mm in diameter and 11.25mm thick. These are from my microscope which doesn't get the color right, but does better on details.

It didn't sink into my thick skull until after I'd posted this that the title clearly says "1 Ounce Copper Rounds", duh! My apology. I'd stick to it from here.

Well it's copper and I guess it would be an ounce and it's round...

Vector Ze that one pounder is amazing. Just think about what size the dies had to be to strike that. My photo skills are not that good which is why I keep a copy of the sellers photos when I buy something. My old Canon camera won't talk to the newer windows 11 so my ability to do photos is limited for now.

You can use a memory card reader.

Not sure what that is? Does it plug into the camera or the computer? I liked my old Canon Sure Shot, took great photos.

The memory card should plug into both the camera and your computer, but you may need an SD adaptor to do so.

The reader plugs into your computer. You pull the memory card from the Camera and put it in the reader.

If you get a multi-reader it will handle any card you may have or get in the future.

I've got two more pounders; a Buffalo nickel and a Liberty Walker, and a couple of 5-ounce Cu Rounds. But, I guess I should stick to the subject for this thread, huh?

It looks like I'm stuck with my flatbed scanner and color-lacking microscope TFN.Post-Your-1-Ounce-Copper-Round Post-Your-1-Ounce-Copper-Round
I am not sure I should continue posting images until/unless I can get better results.
