Fuzzy -
Many thanks - I'm happy to stick to just one or two - if that's what the rules are. I know moderating can be a pain in the rear (especially with "difficult people :) )

Quote: I replied a few hours ago to your email. jbuck had expressed "...try to allow others to post in between if you have multiple offerings. What I would like to prevent is having too many images on one page." In other words, ideally, do what I did with 1923: you can post however many coins (reasonably, but your post wasn't too much - I posted almost as many 1923 coins and nobody complained) if you spread them out over the day.

Here is the breakdown...  There are up to fifteen posts per page. I would like to keep each page to 15~30 images (the variance being when an obverse and reverse are separate images, so that post would have two images). The problem with everyone posting multiple images in one post, multiplied by fifteen posts per page, is that we can have a data heavy page with long load times. Not everyone has the highest speed or the best rig, making these pages painful to load and view. People have complained in the past. I will admit, sometimes it bothers me, especially when scrolling down to find the newest post. So, the rule, on its face, prevents this. I have said you can post another coin after some time has passed. I will come out and say it can be a nanosecond, I do not really care, just make sure the next coin is in a separate post. Of course, someone with fifteen coins could have fifteen posts and "own the page." Well, that may look rude or showy, which is why I ask that you try to wait until another person posts.  Does that make sense now? Questions?

All sounds good ... and fair to me .. Good job Mod's.  I think if everyone understand why were doing it .. there should be no problems. Edit ... I also think it was posted .. if it is a set of coins .. like a proof set ... mint set .. some sort of logical set/group of coins .. that is ok too .. I am guessing they would all be in the same picture, again to limit the number of pics .. in one post

And here I sit waiting for the next year that I might have a single coin to post. Wish I had other people's problems! :)

Back to 1914 for the only 20 francs gold coin issued during the reign of Albert I. Moreover, with only 125,000 coins for each of the two language versions, it still deserves a premium.  ... and whatever pennies or shillings I may have photographed, you find other pictures on the previous page.

By the way, the set does not have to be in an OGP, it can be any grouped shot of the same date! If you have individual (or dual, obverse and reverse) photos of each coin, then try to spread it out.

 Switzerland, 10 rappen, 1914 This coin is pretty boring. But it could have been pulled from circulation yesterday - the 2013 coins are made to the same specifications and design as the 1871 issues.
